I have had this very problem on my brother's machine also running
sarge. Ubuntu users have reported similar problems with my Debian
package.

The package is built on my testing machine (etch). I suppose I should
set up a build system on a sarge machine and offer a Debian Stable
package as well.

In the meantime, you could try the .tar.gz as that has been reported
as working by the Ubuntu users.

Another thing you could try is building your own .deb from the
sources. You should be able to run 'debian/rules build-package' from
the directory the tarball unpacks to. This is the method I used to
build a lame package from source.

I'll see if I can get my hands on a sytem running Stable to build the
package on.

I would be interested in hearing if it works for you.
