Stable Debian is currently on 3.4, unstable Debian is on 3.8 and the GNOME stable release which is happening in a week and a half is 3.12. That is to say, that the "stable" Debian ships with a two year old version of GNOME. You can try using the unstable Debian (which I hear is actually pretty stable in terms of usage). It's probably relatively difficult to use the same version of GNOME as I'm using (3.10) from Debian, but I don't know how to do it as I haven't used Debian in years. The UI for disabling search providers was in GNOME by 3.8.
