If one chooses to do so, it might be better to fetch the debian source
package of the newer version and create a .deb out of it. At least the
benefits of the debian packaging are retained.
(In other words, you create your own backport.)
But if the versions of libraries required for building the newer version
are not available in stable, the process becomes much more difficult.
(But so would be building from the upstream source, probably.)
