One way to overcome this is recompiling (though it's not necessary on
Feisty). Recompiling a Debian package is very easy. You just download
the three source files: *.orig.tar.gz, *.diff.gz and *.dsc, then
unpack with:
$ dpkg-source -x packagename.dsc
"cd" into the new directory and recomile with e.g.
$ dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
After that you get a *.deb that you can install as usual.
Ciao
