Greetings! I've just successfully built 5.9.2 on sarge. I'd
recommend:
apt-get -q install gcl fakeroot texinfo libgmp3-dev libreadline5-dev locales
automake debhelper libncurses5-dev autoconf2.13 gawk tetex-extra sharutils
(as root)
apt-get -q source maxima
(make sure your debsrc in
/etc/apt/sources.list points to unstable)
cd maxima-5.9.2
fakeroot debian/rules binary
Please let me know if problems persist.
Take care,
