29  To install \esfinley download the \filename{escript.deb} file and execute the following commands as root (you need to be in the directory containing the file):  The package file will be named \filename{escript-X-D_A.deb} where \texttt{X} is the version, \texttt{D} is either ``\texttt{lenny}'' or ``\texttt{jaunty}'' and \texttt{A} is the architecture.
30    For example, \filename{escript-3.0-1-lenny_amd64.deb} would be the file for lenny (and intrepid) for 64bit processors.
