When using Sid/Unstable you never know what the next
upgrade will be. As it was previously said package
maintainers sometimes start to use libsystemd0
dependency, and pinning actually saved me a couple of
times (like with procps, rpcbind, openvpn).

Of course this means they should be twice as careful
while upgrading their (Unstable) system. Requesting
a tinfoil hat for your truly.
