axdigi vs. other methods?

What is the best way to handle digipeating with linux? I've
looked at the linux-hams archive and it seems that there used to
be support for this in the kernel, but then there is axdigi,
which I find odd not to be in a debian package. I figure that
there would be axdigi in a package somewhere if there wasn't
kernel support for it. In fact, I saw on the archive where it
had been "taken out," which I don't particularly understand.

So, before I install axdigi (I hate installing non-packagized
software)- is there another way to do this with the kernel?
