My Feelings are mixed. Apt-get totally rules. The problem is Debian. It's just REALLY old. Everything is Really old.Then don't run stable. I've used the testing branch for a year or two and love it. It's only a few weeks/months behind, and the worst I've seen is a few issues with WindowMaker.
If that isn't fresh enough, try unstable. I've never given it a shot, but from what I gather it's a usually a fresher Red Hat without the config tools. Packages do break, but not as often as the name implies.
If that still isn't bleeding-edge enough, there are a few brave souls with their own apt repositories. The KDE developers host one for KDE 3, for instance.
