That's not necessarily true.  Why don't you contact the Debian developer for 
this package?  He can probably tell you if the problems you're seeing are due 
to how he packaged it or not.   In general, bugs in Debian packages should be 
reported to the Debian Bug Tracking System first, and then to the upstream 
developers, so that the upstream isn't bothered trying to support bugs that 
were introduced by Debian in the first place.  

You can find instructions for submitting Debian bug reports here:

Thanks.
