Kevin,

There are debian packages for stable available from the ASPseek website.
Adding the following source to your /etc/apt/sources.list should do the
trick (make sure to 'apt-get update' after adding the new source, or if
you prefer to use dselect run an 'Update' from the main menu):

  deb http://www.aspseek.org/pkg/deb/aspseek-libmysqlclient10 woody aspseek

ASPseek is currently included in the testing/unstable distributions but
didn't make into stable due to time constraints (woody had entered freeze
before the packages were release stable).

An init script which starts searchd is included in the package.

If you have difficulty deciding which of the packages available from the
above source you should install then this list is the appropriate place
to ask for help.


Matt.
