I'm not aware of any, but I would prefer to do that job manually and carefully picking the available sources, packages and versions as possible candidates for installing/upgrading/downgrading. Anyway, porting the script to Debian shouldn't be difficult but I'm a bit reluctant of that sort of automatisms.
