there's quite a few packages available on this page that may be of use:

 * http://sourceforge.net/projects/campcaster/files/

however, the amd64 ones (which i think are the ones that you will need,
if the server you are trying to install on is the one i suspect) do seem
to be ubuntu specific.

another thought would be, what about upgrading your server to squeeze?
considering squeeze is now frozen, accepting only release-critical bug
fixes, this might not be as bad/scary as it sounds - and you will likely
be doing this in the next few months anyway, so you'd be one step ahead
of the game ;-) i don't know if this would solve the problem, but it
might be worth a try.

also, if you want help upgrading, feel free to give a shout in #tachanka
- we might (or might not) be around and be able to help you out.

solidarity,
