Are you running debian's package or did you pull bitcoin from git?

It is git.

If you are building it yourself, type "git checkout v0.8.4rc2" and build that. I am _very_ interested in hearing from you about how things are working for you, as we believe there may be problems with a dependency in debian unstable, so please follow up.

Ok I have checked out 0.8.4rc2 which built fine, but reported a corrupt database at startup. So I am reindexing now.

I'll report back once it gets somewhere - tomorrow probably.
