The point I was making was that it is not a black and white matter. Depending on the use case, a stable Debian system with a third party docker package may not actually be a better solution than a testing system with official Debian packages for Docker. Then again, it may be that the third-party packages on stable are the better approach. That decision is ultimately up to Luís. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sánchez
