1 From time to time there are stabilization bugs where the current stable
2 is broken. For example, https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353487
3
4 However, in theory that should not happen, because presumably the
5 current stable has been tested in the past and considered not broken.
6
7 Of course that would be rather idealistic to assume such situation will
8 never happen, but can we do something more to avoid detecting important
9 problems in the stable tree too late? Are we missing something when
10 stabilizing some important packages that later causes the breakages and
11 need for urgent stabilizations?
