Download the source package, adjust the configuration options in the debian/ directory (and give it a new package version which will never be used by the official maintainers), and build the package(s) locally. Or else download the source from upstream and configure/build it yourself, then install from there, bypassing the Debian packages entirely. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
