According to the Linux Mint website, it should be fully compatible with Debian testing: " Is LMDE fully compatible with Debian? Yes, 100%. LMDE is compatible with repositories designed for Debian Testing. " http://www.linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php You should find qgis 2.2.0-1 in Debian testing. If you need qgis 2.4.0 and cannot wait until it makes its way to Debian testing from experimental where it currently resides, you'll need to use the qgis upstream apt repository. I'm not a fan of using 3rd party repositories, because those repositories are not integrated with each other. So I recommend to stick to the packages in the Debian repositories.
