I just compile mine from scratch. Debian ppc ibook G4. I would be interested how to do this also, but the compiling is not all that difficult. If you need help send me an email. Stephen Sefick

Three out of two people have difficulties with fractions.
Thanks! However, that is my point: it is a bit vague what line to put in /etc/apt/source.list. And I cannot see anything in Debian section for Sid. Also, thanks for the advice on r-sig-debian. Best, PM
