Yes, sure.  What I meant to say is that it=E2=80=99s often preferable to ha=
ve
focused branches, than to have break-the-world branches where it can be
hard to find out what specific upgrade broke something.

Of course we=E2=80=99re limited by the available CPU power on Hydra, so we =
can=E2=80=99t
just have one branch being built for each package upgrade.

Ludo=E2=80=99.
