Yes - I've had flow-tools install instantly via apt-get. Sweet.

I have no comment on the compilation error - althrough I am wondering
why you're attempting to install such an old version: 0.66. Even as far
back as debian sarge (2005) they shipped with 0.67.

To see the list of files in an installed debian package:

 dpkg -L flow-tools

The binaries are installed in /usr/bin.

If you want to install all the build dependencies for a given debian
package (if you wanted to recompile it from source, for example):

 apt-get build-dep flow-tools

To download and extract the debian source archive (includes applying the
debian-specific diffs) do the following. This requires that you have
some "deb-src" sources in /etc/apt/source.list:

 apt-get update
 apt-get source flow-tools

If you make local modifications then you can create a debian package
from that source tree by:

 cd $unpacked_source_dir
 dpkg-buildpackage -b     or     ./debian/rules binary

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Andrew
