Debian has Version: 0.20.14-7.1 as the latest.

I couldn't get the .rpm to work either so I tried with the tar.gz.
It's looking => QT3.2 libs. I have installed the libqt3c102-mt v
3.3.4-3 but it still spits out:

checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.2) (library qt-mt)
not found. Checked the config.log.  This doesn't help me tho..

I'm running testing so those libs (should) work. I will try the unstable 
branch and see if they have newer versions.  I'll report back.
Just joined the Ktechlab mailing list so will check the archives there too.

Looks better than that to me, just wish I could install it.
