Well, I guess Debian made a mistake there. But no matter. Just build new 
pan manually (untar, configure, make, make install). That's what I had 
to do on the Mac since new pan wasn't available from DarwinPorts 
(analogous to apt-get) at all. With default configure options, it will 
go in /usr/local which I assume is not where apt-get puts old pan (but 
check to make sure).

Just leave it anywhere, such as wherever tin expects to find it (home 
directory?) and then make a symbolic link pointing to that in ~/.pan2.
Wouldn't that work?
