Administrating upgrades with Debian

I'm back from the lovely Utrecht... so posts will continue as usual

I have broken my debian a few times while doing an "upgrade" and a few weeks ago I found a package called apt-listbugs which is run before installing and reports open bugs of packages, and with the usage of apt-listchanges and reportbug I think I can get an even more stable etch/sid, I recomend reading upgrading unstable machines safely to understand a little more about it.

And I you just break it, read Rescuing systems using the Debian snapshot server to get back your old package which is no more in the official repository.
