A binary package is available as part of the Debian GNU/Linux system,
but I have no plans to provide them for other distributions.

It's safer to compile it yourself or use the version compiled by your
distribution vendor (if there is one), and it's not a difficult package
to compile. You wouldn't really be able to trust whatever packages I
made available for download, as they'd have to be donated by others. I
don't have the resources to compile the package for multiple
distributions.

That depends on what you're trying to do with it. What features do you
need? It works for the commercial application that I've used it for, but
my application was relatively straightforward.
