Обновился до Debian Lenny и обнаружил, что в репозитарии Fb версии 2.0
1. Есть ли сборки Fb 1.5 для Lenny?
2. Как собрать FB 1.5 из репозитария etch в lenny?

Сборкой никогда не занимался. Apt-buld знаю в теории.

• Debian Lenny Firebird 1.5,angra, 04:09 , 26-Фев-09
  • Debian Lenny Firebird 1.5,rujet, 05:16 , 26-Фев-09

Ну зачем же сразу собирать. Подключи вместе с lenny еще и etch. Сделай apt-get update и поставь нужную версию. Пример:
apt-cache search firebird server classic
firebird2.0-classic - Firebird Classic Server - an RDBMS based on InterBase 6.0 code
firebird2.0-common - common files for firebird 2.0 servers and clients
firebird2.0-server-common - common files for firebird 2.0 servers
flamerobin - graphical database administration tool for Firebird DBMS
libfbclient2 - Firebird client library
libfbembed2 - Firebird embedded client/server library
firebird2-classic-server - Firebird Classic Server - an RDBMS based on InterBase 6.0 code
firebird2-server-common - Common files for Firebird servers
firebird2-utils-classic - Utilities for Firebird - an RDBMS based on InterBase 6.0 code
libfbclient1 - Firebird client library
libfbembed1 - Firebird embedded client/server library

apt-cache show firebird2-classic-server
