I consider security that is more on stable part that on testing, and i |
| 14 |
do not need whole system to be testing -- just one package that so |
| 15 |
poorly designed/made that requires for its new version to abandon all |
| 16 |
the data used for its previous version and make all that data anew! -- |
| 17 |
So, after that had been done for the new version (on another system), i |
| 18 |
would use that data for the new version in Gentoo (rather than |
| 19 |
recreate that data again for old version and then recreate again when |
| 20 |
new version becomes stable) -- but in Gentoo the program is in testing |
| 21 |
for now. |
