[TriLUG] Debian Sid/Unstable

[Aaron Joyner]

Just to be clear, Debian's Sid isn't this
guy<http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111219070548/iceage/images/5/51/Ice_age_sid_dandelion.png>,
it's this guy<http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111206180358/pixar/images/e/e4/Sid%26Buzz.png>...
 This question is not new to the internet, and there are a few reasonable
responses <http://wooledge.org/~greg/sidfaq.html#14>, detailing the types
of problems <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=155873> you
might face.  The Debian FAQ also has a helpful generalized
answer<http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-choosing.en.html>to
your question.
