This is indeed Debian’s problem and needs discussion, but the roots lie in upstreams. It mostly comes down to the fact that upstreams of a growing number of projects are not able to synchronize their releases so that a single set of versions can all work together. Personally I think the best way to alleviate that problem would be to reduce the set of packages that are included in a stable release (and that also means in testing). But that is a high price to pay for the sole benefit of making releases easier. Cheers, -- .''`.
