Change your sources.list to point to testing rather than unstable and
run 'apt-get install "package"/testing'. This will downgrade the
"package". The easiest way to put a package on hold is to run this at
your shell prompt:
echo "packagename hold" | dpkg --set-selections

Later you'll be able to apt-get install these packages when they are
fixed and all will be good and grass will be green again. That's what I
hope for anyways.

Where can I find those two packages (the older versions), and how do I put it
on hold and unhold it when new packages arrive?
THX in advance!
