I just grabbed the stable deb package for dvdauthor and dpkg'ed it:
# dpkg -i dvdauthor_0.6.11-1_i386.deb
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fd%2Fdvdauthor%2Fdvdauthor_0.6.11-1_i386.deb&md5sum=3aa3977fc4e00ffc333b67359f65be25&arch=i386&type=main
This "fixed" the problem I was having. Let me know how you fare.
