Download:

To install the packages, you need to add these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://typo3.sunsite.dk/software/debian/ ./
deb-src http://typo3.sunsite.dk/software/debian/ ./

Then just run apt-get update && apt-get install typo3-base

New #1: Run apt-get install typo3-env to get all recommended packages (mysql-server, imagemagick, etc.)
New #2: Run apt-get install typo3-site-installer to get an install script that manages most parts of the installation! :-)

Additional information/documentation:

Georg Kuehnberger has contributed a Mini-Howto about installing TYPO3 3.5.0 and upgrading to version 3.6.1. Many thanks, Georg!
Michael Mrosek has contributed a german translation of the above Mini-Howto. Thank you!
IMPORTANT: These documents are meant for advanced users only!!

Status of TYPO3 3.6.0 packages: I am currently working on it but it takes much more time than expected.
The new packages will contain an updated site installer, GIF support for GD and ImageMagick, plus most notably a complete installation manual which is currently being written!

Have fun!
