I consider security that is more on stable part that on testing, and i
do not need whole system to be testing -- just one package that so
poorly designed/made that requires for its new version to abandon all
the data used for its previous version and make all that data anew! --
So, after that had been done for the new version (on another system), i
would use that data for the new version in Gentoo (rather than
recreate that data again for old version and then recreate again when
new version becomes stable) -- but in Gentoo the program is in testing
for now.


Thank you for your time,
Sthu.
