See http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/506

Prerequisites: I had to install bzr and force python dependency problem:

sudo apt-get install bzr python-celementtree
sudo apt-get install linux-source-2.6.22
url=http://debian.cante.net/truecrypt-installer
file=$(wget -qO - $url | grep -Eo 'truecrypt-installer[^"]+\.deb' | tail -1)
if [ ! -e $file ]; then
    wget $url/$file
fi
sudo dpkg -i truecrypt-installer*.deb
