I hope you agree that there are several serious problems with the "ice" products on Debian at the moment, relating to *printing* and *displaying* MATHML and Indic scripts. When I wrote 8 months ago in http://www.jw-stumpel.nl/stestu.html#T9.3 Indian mathematicians, it seems, are completely out of luck with Debian. this was still a kind of joke; but to me, trying to exchange ideas with a real-life Indian mathematician, it no longer is. Of course whatever course you take is OK -- if it gets these problems fixed. Any estimate on how long this will take? If it cannot be done quickly, how about adopting the solution that has been available for 9 months -- at least as an interim, untested measure, for Sid only?
