    I don't know the problem you're referring to, so I have no idea ...

    That depends what you're looking for. My server runs stable; my laptop
    (which is also my main development machine) runs unstable; my
    workstation at work ran stable up until late last week, and now runs
    testing because I wanted mozilla-firebird with anti-aliased fonts.

    Right now, systems running testing are actually substantially out of
    date with respect to unstable, due to problems holding up chunks of
    GNOME 2 and all of KDE 3, and more recently problems with glibc 2.3.2.
    Once the latter is resolved I expect the former two to follow reasonably
    soon.

    Cheers,
