I said "if possible". > DDs are responsible for *all* their official > package versions, not just unstable. DDs fixes package issues only on: * pure oldstable system (security bugs) * pure stable system (security bugs and safe fixes) * pure testing system (All bugs normally via unstable upload) * pure unstable system (All bugs) (Please note pure means not mixing stable/testing/unstable) Once you create mixed system, you are basically on your own. (This does not conflict with the fact that I tried to make my packages to be backportable as much as possible. This is my optional action.) > > (Please do not feel bad.

I am not saying "DDs get to ignore testing and stable". I am only saying "DD does not gurantee mixed stable/testing/unstable system". We make releases with reason. We do not test nor gurantee mixed system. Osamu PS: "policy" may not cover obvious... I do not feel I had to take burden of proof here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
