    Perhaps you should be using the testing release instead of the unstable release?

    Unstable has whatever packages the developer built and uploaded. Odds are they have only been checked on one or two machines of a single architecture by a single person. It is being uploaded to be more widely tested.

    After a period of time without horrible bugs the package will be moved to testing for wider testing. You are relatively safe from show stopping problems with this release.

    You can read a bit about the testing release philosophy.
