Or, if you like Squeak 3.9 (and are running Ubuntu 9.10), "apt-get 
install squeak". Which of course is a neat illustration of what Ken 
spoke of earlier: the version in the package often lags behind the most 
recent version.

It's not an uncommon problem: Steel Bank Common Lisp's Ubuntu port 
installs SBCL 1.0.29 when the latest version is 1.0.33, for instance.
