Hello,

I have a question about when can a package enter
testing, particularly when does it break other packages.

I could imagine that, for example:

packages A can be added to testing, packages U upgraded
and R removed if for any debian system, upgrading packages
in U and removing packages in R doesn't yield any broken 
packages (that is, unmet depends or conflicts)

However, this has flaws.

Imagine the situation, in which there are packages A and B,
previously unrelated, and a new version of A is coming in and
it Conflicts: B. In that case, systems having both A and B
will have to remove one. Is that OK?

In any case, I don't see any definition of "A breaks B".
