By the same link you can find general .tar.gz with binaries which can be run on any modern Linux distribution.
By the same link you can download source code if you do not want to deal with bazaar and Launchpad.
The project lives on Launchpad : https://launchpad.net/percona-xtrabackup and you can report bug to Launchpad bug system:

Amazing program, thanks guys!
Why not provide 32bit binaries
Jarod,
We have limited resources from both time and servers prospective so we concentrate on things that can cover most needs. Any help is appreciated.
I built a 32bit binary for linux

Thanks for the update! FWIW, I maintain binary RPM packages of xtrabackup for a number of distributions on the openSUSE build service. I just commited the update to 0.6, binaries should be available shortly from this URL:
http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=ALL&q=xtrabackup
Vadim, in the future, could you provide the source tarball for download as well? I had to extract it from the source RPM this time…

LenZ,
Sure I can do source tarball.
Can we use openSUSE build to build packages for RHEL and DEB ?
I currently do it manually 🙂
