No. This is *why* testing and the buildds exist -- we can track whether or not packages are buildable and installable with *software*. You are asking me to do it by hand. Unstable does not exist so that you can carelessly get the latest and greatest software; it exists so that we can break it. Use testing. > BTW, this is really annoying because aptitude, seeing that it cannot > fulfil dependencies for an updated version, proposes a removal.
