ikiwiki from testing/unstable should install just fine on Squeeze,
doesn't it? If it does not, please raise the issue and I'll see if

It used to be fine at the time I wrote this email, but that's not the

that one.

deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports/ squeeze-backports main contrib non-free

Yeah, I think it's very sensible, before tackling any large task, to
get a bit used to our processes, to get used to work together with
us :)
