Please change the wiki page as you suggest, Terence, and thanks both to you
and Robin for sorting this out.

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!

 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.
