Hi Matias,
Unfortunately, at this point only Debian and Ubuntu are explicitly
supported. However, Linux Mint Serena appears to be based on Ubuntu
Xenial (16.04), you can attempt to install the Xenial version of
Debathena packages. Do note that this is extremely unsupported and you
would proceed at your own peril. Please let us know regardless of
whether this works, though, if you do try it!
If you are feeling adventurous, you can try building the packages
yourself. You can clone the entire Debathena source tree using git
submodules via this repository:
https://github.com/mit-athena/debathena
The Debathena build system is available at
https://github.com/mit-athena/build-system
Best,
Lizhou
