Well, in fact, there was a problem in the way i was using
update-alternatives before: i always linked to a named version, which is
not good (ie to unison-2.13.16 or unison-2.10.2). I should use a
constant name (unison-latest-stable). It makes the upgrade smoother,
because update-alternatives seems to work for packages that exists and
provides the same binary and not 2 version of the same package... It is
not really fully clear for me, but the way i do the alternatives before
broke in some case the link, as you have seen.

I hope this should be fixed by using a constant name...

Kind regard
