A /stable/ system in a studio or on stage is a good thing! YMMV.
But outdated packages is not true [any more]. e.g. debian/stable offers

to debian/git and you already find the latest LV2/lilv/SUIL/.. in sid.
need to list more?
For a desktop/devel system you can run a mixed stable/testing/sid by
just adding them to /etc/apt/sources.list (either manually or with your

Okay, so I decided to download and install the stable release, to add
your repository list and if needed I'll mix stable and testing.
For Ubuntu there was an solvable issue using make-kpkg some time ago,
that's why I was asking.
I suspect no PPPoE during installation?
Anyway, I first try to use
$ wget
