Hello. I run Debian Unstable, Linux [user] 4.19.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.28-2 (2019-03-15) x86_64 GNU/Linux, up to date.
Today, I did sudo aptitude -Pvv update as usual. Result: Current status: 0 (+0) broken, 4 (+4) upgradable, 59005 (-1) new. There is 1 newly obsolete package: linux-image-4.19.0-4-amd64 Fine. So I did sudo aptitude -Pvvv full-upgrade. Result: sudo aptitude -Pvvv full-upgrade The following packages will be upgraded: exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light manpages 4 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 3,332 kB of archives. After unpacking 31.7 kB will be used. Do you want to continue?

And, BTW, when will Unstable ever get into the 5.x.x kernel series?
