Since your debian distribution seems to be non-standard (a blend of stable/testing/unstable); it would seem only appropriate for your vendor to have supplied some information regarding where you may trip up from looking at conventional sources. Thus a large part of your difficulty can be attributed to them, rather than debian. -- Jon Dowland
