Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use
regular expressions." Now they have two problems. -- jwz
more seriously, though: it seems that this upstream already has a fairly
antagonistic attitude towards debian, are we sure that we want to include
their software in a stable release?

read past the part about "mime strippers", which sadly does not mean what
one might think (i believe he meant MIME strippers, though the imagery
did make me chuckle). and on to:
How do I install lamson on a Debian or CentOS server?
Debian and CentOS are notorious for being dinosaurs. Both
distributions of Linux suffer from the false rationale that
older software is more stable and secure. The reality is
that the stability or security of a piece of software is not
a function of its age, and in many cases the newer versions
of software will typically fix many stability and performance
problems. Despite this fact, these two variants of Linux are
notorious for back-porting patches from later versions to older
versions rather than just using the newer version.
