The other way to go is to build it yourself - sounds scary, but I followed the instructions on denemo.org and it worked (on my Debian system, from which Ubuntu is derived). You have to install quite a few packages to do it, but it *did* work. The packages needed are described on http://denemo.org/hacking-sources/ along with the commands needed to build it. If there are problems, please share them so they can be fixed...
