   I see. Sorry for my mistakes.

   This is exactly the problem I tried to work around - I cannot install
the upstream package (it doesn't support squeeze yet) and I cannot use
the version from stable 'cause it has one of those broken (for me)
versions - 10-9. What I was really asked if someone can debianize more
recent version of upstream.

   Now when I've been pointed there is 11-3 in testing I'm going to test
it if I can install it unto stable.
