ACK. I just thought it was a given that getting shib from testing
/will/ break for Etch users, sooner or later, i.e. it's not safe to
just slap in lines for testing, add pinning, install shib and be done
with it?
So what are the current plans -- wait until things break and only then
produce packages? Or hope that most will be off Etch by the time this
happens?
