It seems that at last I managed to install the 0.22 version with:

 # apt-get install libopensync0=0.22-etch2

Then I also installed the libopensync-plugin-file package with:

 # apt-get install libopensync-plugin-file

; but then, when I tried to install libopensync-plugin-syncml with:

 # apt-get install libopensync-plugin-syncml

, I got error:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  libopensync-plugin-syncml: Depends: libsyncml0 but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages


Any help about this?
Thanks,
