For servers i'ts pretty much clear, but in regard to testing vs unstable this was decisive part for me: "Testing has more up-to-date software than Stable, and it breaks less often than Unstable. But when it breaks, it might take a long time for things to get rectified. Sometimes this could be days and it could be months at times. It also does not have permanent security support."

Well, in the past I spent >10yrs with rolling distros (Gentoo & Arch) and thought that Fedora might be good option providign newer packages and I had good experience with smoooth upgrades between releases, bつt last incidents were too much and I never experienced such thing with Debian.

You > should use the WineHQ packages or use the version from Backports Thank you for helpful advice! Few days ago I migrated from Fedora (fc28) where I had serious issues with 4.17.x kernel series experiencing system hangs several times per day when leaving my machine unattended to Debian Sid where there are nothing similar (so far). However, I have a need to run several apps under Wine, but attempt to install it on my x86_64 was an impossible mission - it seems that wine32 is broken. Finally, after enabling WineHQ repo and installing from there, eveything is fine. :-) Sincerely, Gour -- There is no possibility of one's becoming a yogī, O Arjuna, if one eats too much or eats too little, sleeps too much or does not sleep enough.
