I think we should just always use "apt-get -t experimental install" and never 
dist-upgrade to experimental - the latter is a non-existing use-case.

So maybe I shouldn't have merged the above patch ;-)

But I'd like to see http://piuparts.debian.org/sid2experimental/ look less 
sad.


"btw", anything holding back 0.50? I think I want to upload in the next 9 
days...


cheers,
	Holger
