David: I'd like to post your above statement on the Libranet user's forum.

There are too many posts from people who installed Libranent, then 
update to unstable
without bothering to check what is going to happen.

Libranet is fast and easy to install, so there is little excuse for not 
installing a "lab rat" install and testing unstable updates on it before 
going to town on the installation that earns its keep.
