You can build 5.0.3 on Debian Squeeze from source, its so easy.
The wiki has 'from source' howtos on Debian that could help you.

>> Hello,
>>
>> I've an issue preventing the correct recycling of my Pool's volume.
>>
>> Given the definitions at the end of the message, I have the job for
>> locutus
>> pre-create 20 volumes in the Default pool right after the 60 seconds
>> sleep.
>>
>> What happens:
>> - at 02:05, two jobs (Sulu and Locutus) starts.
>> - to avoid them compelling for the same Volume, the Locutus job does a
>> 'sleep 60'.
>> - due, I think, to the known bug in 5.0.2 (bug-1578), the locutus job
>> waits
>> for the sulu completion before going on.
>> - sometimes (I was not able to deduce a pattern yet), while it is waiting,
>> the locutus job creates new volumes in the target pool, even before it
>> needs
>> it.
>>
>> When the pool is empty, like today (I've cleaned and rebuild the pool
>> yesterday), this is not really an issue, but when there are 100+ volumes,
>> with about 50 of them purged, and ready to be re-used, this is annoying,
>> as
>> this makes the pool growing.
>>
>> Any ideas of what I did wrong ?
