Finding a Pine package is easy.  Here's how you do it:

1) Download the Pine source package.
2) Unpack it with `dpkg-source -x'
3) cd to the pine dir and build it with `dpkg-buildpackage'
4) dpkg -i ../pine*deb

There ya go :)  Since the Pine source is a bit dodgy Debian doesn't
distribute modified binaries.  Better safe than sorry.
