Had come to the same conclusion, and would have done it myself, except that I had no idea about possible special rules about the stable tree (never touched it I think)> At the same time or before, the coreutils pkg of the unstable tree should be moved to the stable tree _ to provide there an a successor to fileutils, and because it is not sound to have in the 2 trees 2 quite different pkgs with same name and fullversion.
