It is helpful to me that I can generally expect Debian unstable to
contain installable packages.

It slows me down that for librust-*-dev packages I cannot simply check
that some packages I need are listed in aptitude, but I need to check
for each of them that their dependencies are ok.

Does that make sense? I am having trouble understanding what it is that
you cannot see, and wonder if we are talking past each other here.
