Bongo has just made it into Debian Experimental, as shown on its packages.debian.org page.

This is good because it’s made it through the NEW queue, and so any subsequent version will be uploaded into Debian a lot quicker. To install this straight from Debian, add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list: (Note: You must be running the unstable distribution)

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian experimental main
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian experimental main

The version in the archive is 0.2.0-3. This has not been put into my repository on my site yet. Here is the changelog entry:

bongoproject (0.2.0-3) experimental; urgency=low

  * Initial release into Debian (Closes: #419476)
  * Changed ${Source-Version} to ${binary:Version} and made deps binNMU
    compatible.

Hopefully in the near future I should create some packages for Ubuntu and Debian (etch) for 0.2.0-3, although as you can see from the changelog entry, there’s no real feature difference. Also should get my git repository for package management up soon, when I get my new server. Bear with me.

P.S. If you are reading this in a feed reader, or through the planet, then visit my site and check out my new theme. It’s nice.
