I just wanted to chime in here. If I'm not mistaken, backports.org does not
_yet_ have many backports for Sarge. The packages are almost all backports for
the old stable disto (Woody).
Here is a quote from the backports.org webpage:
"A while ago, Steve Kemp asked what will happen with backports.org when sarge is
out. The answer is easy... I'll take a break."
As far as I can tell, Norbert only has one backport as of yet for Sarge, and
that's the X.org stuff.
