Would it be difficult to make Debian a little more up-to-date
regarding to Chicken?  2.3 is quite old.

Or maybe we should have an "unofficial" Chicken build for Debian and
its derivatives ([K,X]Ubuntu, Knoppix etc).  I don't know about dpkg
packaging and compatibility among distributions .deb packages, so I
have no idea if it's feasible, easy or even worth.

Best wishes,
Mario
