I'm talking about the debian repository that Slimdevices is providing. Yes, Slim does provide a stable tarball release of some form, but its pretty difficult to get working on an Ubuntu installation (I never got previous release totally working on Ubuntu). The deb packages they are providing work great, except that they seem to be generated from the nightlies (based on how often they get updated) and I'm not real excited about possibly breaking my slimserver everytime I do an upgrade.
It would be very easy for Slim to provide a stable deb repository for the more conservative among us.
