Yeah and that's why you are forced to turn your system into a mess with
brokenarch and are supposed to try packages from unstable which create
only more dependency problems and mess things up even further.
Think it through and you'll see that there won't be a next stable
release unless they fix the mess they made --- and they're not going to
do that. Stable is obsolete and deprecated.
