For me wheezy is the worst of all Debian release i have been
using since bo.

Just one example to add to flo's
Really? I think it's one of the best releases ever. Multi-Arch alone is
worth the upgrade. And you can't blame Debian for GNOME3, this was
a decision made upstream.
In fact, Debian has always been one of the distributions which tries
to keep (bad ?) design decisions from upstream away from its users.
For example, Debian kept gdm 2.20 for a very long time to continue
to provide XDMCP support.
the upgrade from squeeze to wheezy, was not a clean one.
I've had to install a package (some lib-gd-annoying.deb), that wasn't
installed before and wasn't able to install because of some unresolved
debs.
Honestly, what do you expect. It's simply impossible to always guarantee
a perfect upgrade from one release to another. You aren't just upgrading
the core of the operating system, but a huge set of user applications.
Plus, I would have honestly appreciated that if more people (especially
the ones who complain now) would have helped in finding and smashing
RC bugs during the Wheezy freeze. In fact, many the RC bugs were
related to Squeeze-to-Wheezy upgrade issues.
Cheers,
Adrian
