I've been running sid throughout without a problem; use aptitude and
apt-listbugs and it should keep you out of trouble. I update daily
mostly and tend not to install anything with open bugs reported by
apt-listbugs.
IIRC I've got < 8 packages held back at the moment, most of which have
been held for a few days.
