Even though you're on Debian you could probably just safely use the PPA
- not normally recommended I know, but it's only a small single purpose
PPA so you should get away with it (I've just tried this on Debian
Squeeze and it worked fine).
What's a PPA? (Google is retuning too many hits that don't mean anything in this context)
I forget what the acronym actually stands for, but they're basically add-on repositories for specialist packages. In this case, there's a PPA maintained for the latest stable build of Banshee for Ubuntu.

Hope that helps.
