I tried this but aptitude is not able to solve the dependencies.

I did
echo -e "\n\ndeb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main\ndeb-src 
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main\n" | sudo tee -a 
/etc/apt/sources.list

echo 'APT::Default-Release "stable";' | sudo tee 
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30defaultrelease

sudo aptitude install libmapnik-dev/testing

of course the dependency tree is huge (i tried with unstable and 
testing). Is this really the way you're doing it on lenny?
