If you feel antsy about trying out the latest gutsy tribe releases but want that 1 slick new package AND don't want to mess your current install with dev libraries try this
prevu - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu
Basically an automated backporting script that compiles the newer package from the further release, under a fakeroot :D . Giving you brand new packages !
I didn't know about this util until i read a post in the qemu list !!
Used it for my qemu 0.9.0 in ubuntu feisty. And the thing works clean.
