Our pseudo-codename setup is not guaranteed to be in sync with Debian's releases, so using the ''stable'' codename might mean that you will actually get packages for what Debian calls ''oldstable'' after a new Debian distro release for a considerable amount of time.</note>

The only upgrade path that is considered somewhat safe is main (release packages) to heuler (nightly packages), but there are no guarantees regarding the stability or usefulness of nightly packages.</note>
