I think one argument for it was so that upgrades from oldstable + -backports to stable work, given that -backports will not contain something newer than stable. However I think it's reasonable to require people upgrading from oldstable + -backports to stable + -backports with a few packages in -backports that are needed to keep the upgrade sane. (Like if I used a postgresql newer than stable already, I certainly want the same from -backports anyway.) I'm not really happy with adding other suites to the wanna-build/buildd setup if that can at all be avoided. I'd like to encourage a serious thought on this by the bpo administrators. (The effort is not so much on the wanna-build side but the fact that every buildd needs to be adjusted and be able to build in a defined chroot.) Kind regards Philipp Kern
