what version are you trying to install?
you should be using: http://download.deluge-torrent.org/ubun ... .hardy.deb
or if you're on 64 bit: http://download.deluge-torrent.org/ubun ... .hardy.deb

If it's PPC, meaning Power PC, you'll have to compile it on system. i386 or x86-64 builds won't run on PPC.

I don't usually go the route of compiling from source but in your case I guess there's not really any other way...

Should be as simple as following the directions of, "Installing From Source."
