This is the reason I suggest following the repository (via secure |
21 |
checkout, which some ebuilds do not do). There is a strange place in |
22 |
between "Debian stable" and "live checkout" that tends to have more |
23 |
harder to fix bugs than the "live checkout" version does. The problem |
24 |
with "Debian stable" is that it typically is lacking features an |
25 |
informed user would want. |

If you end up fixing the issue in the live version then you can more |
28 |
easily submit a pull request. If not, you can still revert to an old |
29 |
release. |
