Because I'm tired of seeing Debian users look like idiots for using such horribly out of date versions just because they run "stable", I've set up a page with .deb packages of my 1.1.x rebuilds for use under lenny. http://www.rollernet.us/opensource/
Sorry I'm retarded; I meant to say these packages are for use under etch aka the current "stable". Carry on.
~Seth Hi Seth,

Just tried to install them on a etch vm (openvz). They dont install. The errors indicates the packages are actually build against "lenny" aka unstable. All on my test environment: # cat /etc/debian_version 4.0 # uname -r 2.6.18-12-fza-686-bigmem
My mistake; the i368 versions are different than the amd64 versions (I use 64 bit systems, so the 64 bit packages are be OK). I don't have a proper build host for i386 handy at the moment.

Nevermind. I was able to build v1.1.8 for i368 from the "experimental" sources against "etch" myself now. Had to use dpkg-buildpackage -d to circumvent the dependency on a newer drac-dev, not available in etch.
They install ok, have to test them now.
The updated drac-dev can be installed in the same manner and removed after build. I'm actually surprised that testing might go with 1.0.15 rather than a 1.1.x build. It sure would eliminate a lot of the "I'm using Debian and blah doesn't work - oh - I didn't realize it was old."
