Ouch. That has to be the poorest answer I've ever seen from a Debian
developer... ever. In bugs I've submitted and seen submitted, the
developer would either take the issue up with upstream or fix the
problem themselves. I think it isn't right for a Debian developer to
suggest a package from experimental to be installed on a stable box to
solve a problem with a package from stable.
