Any clues in regard to that?Not really, by default it is pinned so you need to explicitly tell it to grab packages from experimental # apt-get -t experimental my-buggy-package It's pretty handy, some of the stuff there is buggy/untested, some of it is just waiting for transition. Very good if you need newer kernel or mesa drivers.
