The Linux version of desmume comes in source code form only, and if your distribution does not package it or is packaging an old version you will have to compile the sources yourself. In order to compile desmume you'll need at least these packages:
gcc make libglib2 libgtk2 libglade gettext libsdl zlib
If you want 3d engines alternatives to software rasterizer you may install libgtkglext or libosmesa.
