You will have some problems with this on unstable because the versions of
libraries are different. You can get round most problems with symlinking.
It is this version where most of the tweaks are going at the moment from my
reading of this list.

I actually use this version (as I am running unstable) but it does not seem to
have had any changes to it for about two weeks. But its seems to work fine.
I am expecting this version to be superceeded by the real packages entering
debian unstable "any time now" (as we have for the last 6 weeks).

Personally I would use the sid ones if you run unstable and expect to upgrade
soon.
