I too use pureftpd and it works fantastic. I installed it from apt-get, but I am not sure which repository it is in. apt-cache finds it, so it must be somewhere in the repos. It is under the name pure-ftpd.
One feature that I like about this one is the virtual chroot. A standard chroot will not allow the ftp to follow symlinks outside the chroot directory. The virtual does. I use this to set up a personalized FTP directory for each user. They are chrooted into that directory, and I use symlinks and mount points to give controlled access to directories on both the same machine or others on the network. (i.e. we have a general work share on our samba server, so I set up an nfs mount to that share, and set a symlink to the mount in the president's ftp directory, this gives him, but nobody else access to the working share).
Good Luck
