How to upgrade Emacs which is NOT on repo

[satimis]

Hi folks,

Debian 504 64-bit
Emacs 22.2.1


I have emacs running on the box

$ apt-cache policy emacs

emacs:
  Installed: 22.2+2-5
  Candidate: 22.2+2-5
  Version table:
     23.1+1-4~bpo50+1 0
          1 http://backports.org lenny-backports/main Packages
 *** 22.2+2-5 0
        500 http://ftp.hk.debian.org lenny/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

But I need to upgrade it to the latest version 23 which is NOT on repo. Please advise how to do it. TIA
