I like that - it sounds like an excellent tip (hard to see how it might be
included in an automated update process, but that would of course be even

Have you ever mentioned this to the Debian project, to see whether they
consider this either to be a bug in the upgrade process, or at least a
workaround worth documenting for people doing the upgrade?
