Ya, add:
deb-src http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/debian unstable mythtv
to your /etc/apt/sources.list

Then:
apt-get update

Then:
apt-get -b source mythplugins
or:
apt-get source mythplugins
cd mythplugins-0.18.1/
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b

...it will be up to you to get the build dependencies (fairly easy).  Also, 
a bunch of stuff is off in the package by default...namely the transcode 
daemon?!?!?!  So:
edit:
~/MythTV/mythplugins-0.18.1/debian/rules
and add:
--enable-transcode
(remove --disable-transcode if it is in there)

Good luck,
Todd
