There was a lot said in IRC that one should *not* (even if told to) put
"testing" or "stable" in their sources.list because of the changeovers.
Right now here's what they are pointing to:
stable: Stretch
oldstable: Jessie
testing: Buster
oldoldstable: Wheezy
People are strongly advising one use the version name (ie. "buster",
"stretch", etc.) instead.
