Presumably because its available as an RPM or a tarball only, and 
because as yet it can only be considered unstable (as per the Debian 
definition).

How about downloading the tarball, extracting it then compiling it?

Or use Alien to take an RPM and convert it into a .deb (doesn't always 
work)?  And then try installing it?
