What you say may suggest that there is a problem with some Debian packages or 
policy while IMHO it is mostly upstream problems (e.g. sloppy versioning).

It might be fair to say that container ecosystem in general is immature, not

The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie -- deliberate,
