Downgrading has always been a problem in Debian.
The slow way is simply to change your sources.list to point to lenny
instead of sid. As sid packages drift into lenny by the normal
development process, your system will gradually become more lenny than
sid. Along the way aptitude will probably have a few conniptions. The
answer to that is simply to back out of any upgrade that causes
trouble (using control-U in interactive more). The problems will
usually sort themselves out in a few weeks.
