I would not use the repo version even without familiarity with Linux - it would make things actually more difficult later. I would follow the instructions exactly as they are written by BestPractical from the .tar.gz on their site. One thing you can do to make life a little easier before doing that however is to install the CPAN bundle with perl.

We have a Debian server, finally, but when I try to apt-get install request-tracker4, I get a bunch of errors about not being able to install dependencies. I'm using the sources the original install came with. What source(s) do I need to include to let Debian access the necessary dependencies for RT?
