I'm using Debian Lenny (testing) here and to get the latest version of
Orca, I went ahead and installed appropriate packages so Orca is
running.  But for me that showed up as something from May of this
year.  So I then went into svn and checked out new versions of Orca,
atk, at-spi, and gail.  Basically, this is the recommended process for
getting latest version of Orca for any distro.  I then compiled these
into /usr/bin so the newly compiled binaries overlaid the older debian
ones.  I would imagine that a package upgrade or re-install of
existing package would overlay these again.  So I keep the svn
versions around and if such a package overlay happens, then just do
another make install and the svn versions would take precedence again.

For at-spi, I do a
'./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/at-spi'
The others are merely './autogen.sh --prefix=/usr'

I'm not sure the status of unstable yet.  I'm new to Debian and want
to wait a short bit before I go up to Unstable.
