	Yes, I could, butt these are servers, and one of the main reasons I
run Debian on them is stability.  'Not that I have a huge issue with
compiling from source, generally speaking, but I much prefer to keep
everything on these systems wholly in the stable release whenever possible.
With Debian, that's usually 9 months or so after a piece of software is
released as stable in the other distros.
