How would this work with something like testing or unstable?
I doubt it would be a good idea, but I wonder if anyone has tried it anyway.
(thinking of all the times I have had to run through the packages and choose
one by one which ones I wanted to install or leave just to avoid one causing
apt to want to remove a bunch of my packages, this might not be a good idea
to do with my mixed testing/unstable system, though a pure testing system
might work...)
