Which package did you install? 'koha' contains a standard configuration
and is useful to get a single instance up and running quickly, and
'koha-common' (which contains all the code and support scripts) allows a
more complex setup, at the expense of not giving you one up front.

If you use the 'koha' package, you'll need to set up the zebra-related
cron jobs and launch scripts yourself, as the site that it gives you
isn't hooked into the Koha site management system that koha-common on
its own uses.

My recommendation at the moment would be to just install koha-common,
and use the koha-create script to generate a single instance. What I
might do in the future when I get time is make the 'koha' package
install its default site in such a way that it gets managed by the
koha-common tools. This would mean that the koha-rebuild-zebra cron job
and such like magically happen.

In fact, I've created a bug:
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5071
so that this doesn't fall off my radar. I've also edited the wiki page
at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.2_on_Debian_Squeeze to
hopefully clarify this.
