When in the last 16 years was this 2 year period of running stable?
The general state of QA has varied quite a bit over that time.
Judging by the open bugs anybody running unstable systemd has been
going through a bit of pain in the last week as various scripts/etc
are updated to handle the change in install location. Now, it could
have been masked initially, but that is really no different except it
is a different set of guinea pigs. If unstable never breaks chances
are we aren't actually using it for its intended purpose, not that we
should be deliberately breaking things.
