In case it is not clear, it is not that a new version of the software, is not available for Debian 6 - it is that the software that was available for Debian 6, that, as I previously said, worked quite happily, was killed suddenly, without just cause. It is a bit like a street sniper, killing of members of the public - "Why did you kill that person? That person did you no harm."
