If we go down this path, can we make cross-grading a supported feature for the next stable release? I'm sure I'm not the only one who is stuck with continuously-upgraded i386 hosts who has been wanting to switch but has been waiting until cross-grading is a little bit less scary. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
