The package monotone-server sets up monotone itself to run in server
mode.  There's no Debian package (that I know of) that sets up usher.

To run usher, all you need is the monotone package, and then you have
to set up usher on your own.

Cheers,
Richard ( has been thinking of making a Debian package for usher, but
hasn't gotten started yet... )
