True, but Gentoo has never really guaranteed much of anything at all. |

In my experience stable with a few ~arch packages tends to work just |
| 10 |
fine, and that is the configuration I typically use. Certainly I know |
| 11 |
that any packages that I maintain work fine on a stable system. I |
| 12 |
always figured that this should be the focus of testing, since stable |
| 13 |
is the ultimate target for anything we deploy. If a package happens |
| 14 |
to break on ~arch that isn't as big a deal, since that is what ~arch |
| 15 |
users are signing up for. Such issues should be fixed, of course. |
