Yes, I do, for the same reason I've already said in this bug report.

Nobody talked to me about whether this package was ready for a m-a
transition before creating this mess - or I'd have told them the same
thing.  Please wait until we have a stable release out.

Right now, it's more important that developers be able to backport
updates to it trivially, than for people to be able to run non-free
stuff in sid.

If you want stable m-a, use stable.  Or use a chroot.


This will be fixed once we have a formal stable release version out.

  Ron
