I have heard of many people complaining how installing a ubuntu package has destroyed their Debian installation and the reverse is also true. If there is no Debian version of the package you are interested in installing, then it would be wise to either switch to using Ubuntu, or you should ask the developers to create Debian packages, or contacting a DD for information on creating your own. I repeat, for brevity. Do not mix packages between Debian and Ubuntu. Joe
