This is what I was trying to point out to the list a couple of days ago,
debian testing seems to be having some issues getting the latest packages from
debian unstable. I think the current state is that half of the packages
(dependencies) in testing are at 20050313 and the other half are 20040111. I
don't know if this is due to that the ARM auto-builders are behind or what,
but with the current mix of versions on packages I don't think gEDA will work
really well in debian testing...

Debian unstable does have all the latest packages though, the issue is
propagating them to testing. I guess another way of asking is, what is going
on here:

http://bjorn.haxx.se/debian/testing.pl?package=libgeda

I have CC'ed Hamish Moffatt (the Debian maintainer), Hamish can you help ?

Thanks
