Lots of upgrades in debian/amd64 "stable"/sarge

[Soenke von Stamm <sstamm@affili.net>]

Hi all,

though debian/amd64 sarge is meant to be 'stable' by now, I get a lot of 
updates for my mail server today (dist-upgrade):

56 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

All 57 files are loaded from the sarge tree.

My last dist-upgrade was just last week, so I'm wondering how "stable" the 
archive is today. I feel a little inconvenient with recurring updates to this 
production system though most of the time I don't run into problems with 
them. I wouldn't guess these are security updates.


TIA,

      Sönke
