Hi Urban, thanks for that list. At this moment i followed the advice of
fsmithred and set in my sources.list all what before was Jessie to
Ascii. Would that be reasonable from your point of view. Or is there
something to consider, eventually to keep from Jessie. In the past i
was used to use unstable (either in crunchbang or in siduction) ...

Cheers.
