As already said ad nauseam, PLEASE use STABLE + BACKPORTS
(e.g. an accurate selection of backports.org and dgis stable or
stable-experimental). You can be decently stable and up-to-date
in that way.
DO NOT USE TESTING OR SID if you need a stable environment.
This is the same as using a pre-release Fedora, if you do
so you are simply looking new and perverse ways to have
an hard life.
