If someone is using unstable, I expect them to be able to resolve such issues themselves. unstable isn't a release, it's a development version of Debian. > The issue that the DELAYED NMU fixes is that anyone who installed > sane-backends from unstable during the 3 months before 1.0.27-3.1 was > released are unable to upgrade to 3.1 without manually telling apt how > to do the upgrade. Yes, I understand and I know that this problem existed on unstable. But it's easy to fix manually and everyone who uses unstable should be expected to be able to do that. We have had much more serious issues in unstable which required manual fixing. I don't think we should include workarounds for all these issues just to make unstable beginner-friendly. I don't understand why some users install unstable without understanding the ramifications of using a development version of Debian. Adrian -- .''`.
