There is package for older version. Version 4 branch is rather 
new and it will take some time until maintainer of non-bleeding 
edge Linux distributions will consider it stable enough to be 
allowed into official repositories.

It is a common approach on its own. Problem is the plugin API 
incompatibility they do which does not allow Alex to maintain 
Mono-D for older version without effectively spending twice more 
time/efforts. I don't know the details but he was ranting about 
it quite a lot :)

There is a certain unpleasant similarity between MonoDevelop and 
DMD development process :D
