OK, thanks. I would hope not Gimp also...
Don't know how affected testing is by which transitions, but the ones
the were causing
me grief in unstable were taglib, clucene, ffmpeg-libav, and opencv.
I expect flac, libmusicbrainz5, and libtorrent-rasterbar were adding
to the confusion as
well.

I did uninstall ktorrent since I have not been using it anyway and I
was finally able to get
everything up to date without removing anything I care about keeping.
I did have to work at it to find combinations that would not cause a
big list of removals.
I use Synaptic. First using the default upgrade to get the low hanging
fruit. Then making
selections from the things that remain. Then going through the list of
obsolete packages
and selecting packages to purge. If selecting something to purge gives
me a list of changes
that includes something I want to keep that has a newer version
available, and the list of
those things is reasonably small, then I will give the OK for that,
then switch to
'Custome Filter --> Marked Changes' then change the selection for the
things I want to keep
to upgrade in order to see what else that triggers.
