I think he means "the least buggy version on amd64." Doing a stable bump |
| 11 |
to solve a huge bug whilst introducing a number of smaller ones is, I |
| 12 |
think, acceptable, even if you're playing with the stable branch. This |
| 13 |
is even detailed (albeit only briefly and suggestively rather than |
| 14 |
explicitly) in the developer guidelines. Sometimes, QA has to slip by |
| 15 |
the wayside in order to ensure that something isn't massively broken. |
| 16 |
"Stable" does not mean "wait until all known bugs are solved" - it means |
| 17 |
"least broken." Everything is broken to some extent. |
