Dear Developpers

Following  packages.debian.org it seems that no QGIS packages are actually available in the Debian testing (Wheezy)

the version of Qgis in the Debian unstable version (Sid) seems to be still only 1.40
(and i remember that as there was some problems with 1.40 in Debian,
and that it was necessary to use the gfoss.it repository  to get the 1.5.0 without these problems)

gdal 1.9.0 is only in the Debian experimental repositories, while it seems that it could be necessary for newest versions of Qgis
(a colleague of mine tested a compilation with gdal 1.9.0 and  this solved a problem of shift of 50 m that i had with some rasters
and on the fly reprojection) with QGIS  1.7.4 on Debian (with libgdal 1.6.3) and unfortunately  i had also the same problem
with QGis 1.7.0 and gfoss repository with gdal 1.70)

Even Debiangis (http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis) has a link to "DebianGIS Package Thermometer 
 announces that Qgis in Debian remains an  old version 
(see "DebianGIS Package Thermometer at http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/debiangis-status.html)

So ..  I would like to know what will happen for QGIS users on Debian  in the future Debian versions, and specially if Debian testing reaches 
its "frozen stage" with no more recent version than the  1.4.0 

Best regards

DBL
