In your use of Arch's rolling release have they ever slipped in packages that
were clean and stable but
hozed over other packages such that you were forced to roll back the upgrade,
or use packages outside
the rolling release to get up and running?
Are new commits really tested against the existing package base, or are they
simply letting
the package management do its normal requires/provides analysis?
This is where things still occasionally go to hell in Debian Rolling Releases.
