Uggh, they removed X4 from Woody? I'm not sure I like this testing distribution thing. If I'm pointing at woody the whole time (which I have), I don't expect packages to be rolled back unless something is really wrong. So now that X has been removed from Woody, I must either roll back to X3 also,

You contradict yourself - if you were tracking woody you were tracking unstable. Since you were tracking unstable before I don't see why it's such a big deal to track it now ... Maybe it's not worth a discussion, but when I started using woody before, the stability of this machine was much
