Another option that may work is to grab the testing or unstable package's source, and compile that on your stable system, to get a package that depends on your stable system's libraries. Maybe try: # nano /etc/apt/sources.list (put a deb-src line for unstable in your sources.list) # apt-get update # apt-get install build-essential # apt-get build-dep exim # apt-get --compile source exim # ls exim*deb # dpkg -i <your-newly_compiled-package.deb> I haven't tested these instructions.
