Debian policy is that you should be able to go straight from Jessie to
Stretch.
I do not understand this problem, however I can't help but think that -
maybe - the easy solution has been taken (tell everyone to upgrade via
backports) - as opposed to understanding the root cause of the problem.
I would be very interested in knowing the root cause, however right now
I have already spent far too much time on this thread.
