Interesting idea. Do we then not consider testing to be the proving ground for the next stable release, until freeze time?

Bug#898394: general: Network (Ethernet) icon not updating on connection
Package: general Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I tether my phone's internet connection on my notebook. But I'm noticing that the network icon does not update even the connection is successful. It usually keeps displaying that connecting status; the icon is grayed out. Rarely, the icon is displayed correctly i.e., it's no longer grayed but shows white icon (successful connection) -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IN, LC_CTYPE=en_IN (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_IN:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)

While I can understand that dropping packages can have some effect on other (remaining) packages, the packages we are speaking of are usually leaf-packages or part of a relatively self-contained dependency tree. So the consequences of dropping them are low. > Do you think this would result in longer freezes, or not? I don't think so. Removal of packages doesn't tend to uncover many bugs.
