Newest guppi is in the unstable dist or you can get the three packages
(guppi, libguppi8, libguppi-dev) at
http://jimdres.home.mindspring.com.  The libguppi-dev package doesn't
have good dependancies yet, so you'll have to make sure the following
are installed:

libart-dev, gdk-imlib-dev, libaudiofile-dev, libbonobo-dev,
libdb2-dev, libesd0-dev | libesd-alsa0-dev, libgdk-pixbuf-gnome-dev,
libgdk-pixbuf-dev, libglade0-dev, libglade-gnome0-dev,
libgnomeprint-dev, libgnorba-dev, libguile9-dev, libjpeg62-dev,
libncurses5-dev, liboaf-dev, liborbit-dev, libpng2-dev,
libreadline4-dev, libtiff3g-dev, libxml-dev, libzvt-dev
