I'm scared. Whenever I tried to use packages from two dists in the past,
I was in big trouble with unmet package dependencies. The machines are
going to be used in my compay's office and so for the first time in my
Debian life, I prefer to use 'stable' instead of 'testing'. :-)
But I'll consider this. At least, I'd the upcoming problems would be
familiar to me...

Than you for your suggestions.
