Did you consider cvs version? No problem with emacs 23 gnus that comes
from cvs with emacs.

sidenote : I got frustrated with the debian "mess" and totally removed
emacs from debian (ubuntu is based on debian) and now just use cvs emacs
and manually downloaded anything else I needed. Whenever I had an issue
with Debian emacs and asked in #emacs irc, people would run a mile. It's
a lot nicer to have this "self contained" emacs environment than having
to figure out how or what Debian is doing.
