That is a good one, I need to remember that! Since we're directly referencing a specific monotone install on a specific architecture, adding the dependencies does not bother me too much, however it would help keep the page up-to-date if we updated the monotone version. So, again, if no-one objects, I will change the monotone install steps to reflect Robin's suggestion below.

I'd set up a repository, but it seems overkill for a single package!

Only these commands should be needed to install monotone:

wget

b sudo apt-get install libboost-date-time1.33.1  \
    libboost-filesystem1.33.1 libboost-regex1.33.1
sudo dpkg -i monotone_0.32-0.1_i386.deb

unless somebody objects, I'll update the wiki!

Or to avoid to mention explicit dependencies on the wiki:

  wget http://www.venge.net/monotone/downloads/monotone_0.32-0.1_i386.deb
  sudo dpkg -i monotone_0.32-0.1_i386.deb

If the last commands fails because of missing dependencies:
  sudo apt-get install -f

The last step will take care of the missing dependencies and prompt
the user to confirm the installation of the extra packages.
