  This illustrates 2 of the things I really like about Debian:
   1. There's accountability for every package
   2. Things don't make into stable until they've lasted a while in
      testing without breaking things, and they don't make into
      testing without going through unstable for a whil.

  If esr moves to Debian and sticks with stable he won't have *these*[1]
  problems.

[1] Which is intended to indicate that Debian stable has a whole list
    of other problems I'm sure esr will find to bitch about :)
