Nice track record! You may have used my tiny contribution to the kernel from ca. 1995 if you used a specific (but common) NIC at the time :)

I came back to Debian when it was 7 or 8 and installed it 6 months before the next release.

The upgrade notes made it very clear that in place upgrades are an abomination and that I will burn in hell if I do that. Or something like that.

So I reinstalled.

And took a Leo of faith in the next version by using "stable" as the distribution, apt dist-upgrade and all. It worked !

Maybe the alarming messages are now gone, good thing. I will be switching from arch to debian soon and stay there for ever.
