Install testing packages and the missing dependencies from unstable. Aptitude is nice tool for doing this. To limit packages installed from unstable and still be able to upgrade packages, set up a /etc/apt/preferences like: Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 990 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 100 -- Jerome
