I didn't have a server back then --- and software to run on my computer which worked fine until some change was made and it suddenly didn't work anymore. Package managers told me that the problem won't be fixed and to install packages from experimental which wouldn't have solved the problem and couldn't be installed without more or less upgrading my system to experimental. They call it "multiarch", I call it brokenarch. IIRC, that was before current stable was relased, and there was no chance that the problem would be fixed with the next stable release. Hence I needed a replacement for Debian and switched to Fedora. Leaving users stranded like this is a big no and has destroyed 15+ years of trust into Debian. Now they are planning to do something like that again by forcing systemd upon their users, proving me right in what I've been thinking when they suddenly enforced brokenarch: That something causing trouble to such an extend is likely to cause further trouble sooner than later. -- Knowledge is volatile and fluid.
