You can pull Gossip 0.20 from experimental[1].  Most of the stalling in
the uploads is due to the Gtk+ >= 2.10 dependancy which is a non-trivial
transition distribution-wise.
Besides the Debian native dists, Sjoerd and I have frequently made
available Subversion (previously CVS) snapshots in the luon-exp[2] and
luon-sid[3] suites.  You are welcome to give these builds a try.

Regards,
Paul

P.S. Currently the Gossip SVN snapshot is located in luon-experimental
     for the same reason it is in experimental in Debian.
