I spent a little time trying to force this installation on my Pi tonight, and I was unable to get it working. Here's the dump from my attempt:

I can ask the developers tomorrow, but I'm not aware of any ARM packages for NCPA. This doesn't mean it's impossible, but my Pi is pretty much "out of the box" (I've only installed some webcam software on it so I can see what the dogs are up to while I'm at work:))
