Well, I think it's really the same issue. The problem is one of
expectation: we have two similar components, GNOME and KDE, in the same
distribution, following different update polices - GNOME favours stable,
KDE favours adventurous. This confounds expectation.

Yes, my problem is potentially almost solved with the tools at our
disposal and some little tweaks to interfaces, except for the problem
raised by Jesse, see my reply to his post. :)
