So I need to do

# apt-cache policy apt
apt:
  Installed: 1.1~exp12
  Candidate: 1.1~exp12
  Version table:
 *** 1.1~exp12 990
        990 http://ftp.tw.debian.org/debian experimental/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1.0.10.2 500
        500 http://ftp.tw.debian.org/debian unstable/main i386 Packages

to tell it to you.

But I don't want to downgrade, as it might mess up my system.

What would be more helpful would for you folks in the Debian Labs to
upgrade and see what happens. Thanks.
