There's little reason for compiling it yourself, but there's really no reason not to try either. I like debian and I like using apt-get to manage my system. Learning to be a bit more independent won't hurt though.
So here we go:
--START HERE --
wget http://www.ant.uni-bremen.de/whomes/rinas/sinfo/download/sinfo-0.0.45.tar.gz
tar -xvf sinfo-0.0.45.tar.gz
cd sinfo-0.0.45/
sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libasio-dev libboost-signals-dev
./configure
(If your interface configuration has disabled IPv6 you must use ../configure --disable-IPv6 or sinfod will silently exit)
make
sudo checkinstall
Done.

make
sudo checkinstall
Done.
Start the sinfo daemon by
sudo sinfod --quiet --bcastaddress=192.168.1.255
Use
sinfo
to monitor
If you had sinfo installed before, autoremove it, then edit the left-behind /etc/init.d/sinfo script and change
/usr/sbin/sinfodto
/usr/sbin/local/sinfodOtherwise see http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/debian-testing-wheezy-64-building_23.html for an example of writing your own init.d script.
To see all the cluster nodes running sinfo, just start
sinfo
