No, if you need a _really_ stable system it's not.
[ Ways to install Python 2.0 on stable:
* (partial) upgrade to unstable
* install locally from source ]
Well, there is a third option, apt-get -b source.
Debian source package installs could be used for much more, like
very specific binary optimisations, builds with different
features/dependencies, debugging builds. (The latter already
exists in policy, though few packages use DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS
currently).
