Just so us Debian-based folk don't feel left out, redis 0.094 has been
available in the "experimental" distribution for a week or so now. It's
designed to Just Work after installation and is well-behaved just like
another other daemon.
The client libraries are available in seperate packages to avoid spurious
dependencies. It'll appear in the "unstable" distribution soon.

Jason, Chris, thanks for your efforts.
I'm not very skilled with Redhat, but about Debian-based distributions
(I use Ubuntu) what I can say is that in my company sometimes the fact
that something is ready to be apt-get installed is very important to
us. Usually all of our web environments can be replicated just
installing ubuntu, performing a number of apt-get installs, and
decompressing a tar.gz with the application code.
Of course for now that Redis is changing so fast it's hard to use
packages, but after Redis 1.0 release we'll have the stable release
that will change slowly, and Redis 1.1-unstable (that will be forked
the same day Redis 1.0 will be released) in order to continue the
development. Packages, and being on Debian/Ubuntu apt repositories,
for Redis 1.0 stable will be very helpful IMHO.
Ciao,
Salvatore

Just for the record, Ubuntu is not something I care too much about or
have any real influence over; they will sync newer packages over from
Debian from time to time but they are likely to lag behind.

Well, actually not so much. The redis code/protocol might be changing,
but the packaging around it has been fairly constant since the beta5
packages I made. Just keep releasing tarballs..
