Yeap, I have tried that already and came across some dependency hell business:
(this is debian squeeze though)
"""
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-dev-i386 : Depends: libc6-dev (= 2.11.3-3) but 2.13-32 is to be installed
Recommends: gcc-multilib but it is not going to be installed
libc6-i386 : Depends: libc6 (= 2.11.3-3) but 2.13-32 is to be installed
"""
I'll be checking on it and find the way out; I'll start afresh to be sure.

Ah, I hadn't realized that the existing list is not working with latest sw.
This means we (I) still need to do the work! Anyway, we'll do what is needed.
Oops, the rest of this e-mail got a bit long, I'm sending it separately.
best,
