Well, you could just point your sources.list to potato, apt-get update, 
apt-get install <insert needed new packages here> and you will upgrade 
only what�s really needed for the new packages. I�m doing this on 2 of 
my servers since potato hit stable and it works just fine (except 
samba...).

Another try would be searching for an old package (you should find some 
in /var/cache/apt-/archives) via http://ftpsearch.ntnu.no and hope 
to find that some mirror still holds slink.
