That would be quite useful if you have the time!  Another thing that might the
whole process easier is to 'git bisect', if you are familiar with that..
Right now, Debian squeeze and wheezy have 0.6.2, and Ubuntu has 0.6.1 and 0.6.3:

http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=olsrd
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=olsrd

So the idea is to find out which version of these we can rely on, and which we
need to use replacements.
