I haven't seen instructions for this, so hopefully this will point people in the right direction. I'm using the AMD64 release of Gutsy. Here's a rough overview of the steps since I can't repeat them. I'd be happy to edit this post with more detailed instructions:
1. sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
2. Download the following files to a temp directory (substitute [VERSION] for the current version, that site has directory listings enabled so look at http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xbmc/ for the latest versions):
mkdir ~/temp

cd ~/temp
wget http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xbmc/xbmc-common_[VERSION]-gutsy1_i386.deb
wget http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xbmc/xbmc-skin-default_[VERSION]-gutsy1_i386.deb
3. Extract the deb files and then copy the files to /usr:
cd ~/temp
ar -x xbmc-common*.deb
tar -xvzf data.tar.gz
ar -x xbmc-skin*.deb
tar -xvzf data.tar.gz
cd usr
sudo cp -R * /usr
4. Ok, this is the boring part. Start xbmc up by running "xbmc". It will complain about missing libraries. Look up the corresponding library at http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/libs/ and download the i386 version to the temp directory. I'll give an example for libcwiid:
cd ~/temp
rm -r *
wget http://mirrors.cat.pdx.edu/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/cwiid/libcwiid0_0.5.03+svn20070508-2_i386.deb
ar -x libcwiid*.deb
tar -xvzf data.tar.gz
cd usr/lib
sudo cp -P * /usr/lib32 #the -P will preserve symbolic links
cd ~/temp
rm -r *
5. Repeat step 4 until all libraries are accounted for. Took about 20 minutes on my system to get them all.
Enjoy!
