I'm curious about this. I've been running pure sid for over a year and have never had anything break <knockwood>. What is people's experience with this?I update daily (amd64 and 32bit chroot) and so far haven't experienced any serious breakages. Using aptitude and apt-listbugs seems to keep me out of trouble.
I have the same impression. (I am on i386.) I also find apt-listchanges
useful since it automatically notifies me about all news related to the
occasional changes to overall design, the way configuration files work, etc.
Using a mirror in Europe probably gives me some additional safety as
well, since it adds a slight delay during which the people from the US
will hopefully report all grave bugs.
I would go so far as to say that "Debian Unstable" is an oxymoron.
