That seems bad :-(

I know about the move (leaving out consistency and usability questions),
but still the "Apps" management icon disappeared after the first
upgrade.

Please note that this was with the upstream .deb, so I am glad to know

I only tested the upstream .deb.

I was referring to the example set created upon first login and sorry, I
do not have any upstream link: as I wrote, I am very low on time these
days.

Given your reply, nothing prevents an upload to unstable.

Thx, bye,
