Sadly, I've now tried that package, and it seems to be incompatible
with the version of libc6 in plain Woody :

=======================< cut >=========================

I don't know where the required libc6 version comes from, but it's not
the one in testing or unstable :

 testing 	libc6 2.3.2-7
 unstable 	libc6 2.3.2-8

Thanks anyway.
