Firebird 2.5.1 is now in debian testing http://www.firebirdnews.org/?p=6397 You can upgrade quite easy from stable to testing I will check if it can be compiled in debian stable and I will discuss with Damyan if it can be added to backports There are some issues now with dpkg requirements but it will be solved the package from sid/testing requires dpkg 1.16 http://www.debian-news.net/2011/09/24/bits-from-dpkg-developers-dpkg-1-16-1/ http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-firebird-general/2011q4/002140.html
