As I'm about to do some development with opensync, you don't mean the
old 0.14 plugin packages I should use with the 0.18 base library packages
of debian unstable (these aren't at the download page either)!?

Likely you mean the mentioned subversion repository and not a secret
debian package one, right? <-:

I'm not too dumb to use source packages, I'm just not interested to
spoil my debian installation. - And before I do my very own
plugin-packages, etc, I thought to ask first... (no work is definitively
less work :-)
