Switch from Sid to Trixie and wait for it to catch up?
So, I’m currently on Sid, because I needed several packages, including Gnome, in newer versions than what was in Stable.
When I tried upgrading from Stable to Testing, apt asked to remove half the system, including Gnome. That’s why I went directly to Sid instead, which didn’t have that issue and worked beautifully.
Now that everything works, I eventually want to get back on a stable system.
Would it work to point sources.list to Trixie, wait till it catches up to my installed package versions, then just stay on Trixie till it’s Stable? I already checked that when I point sources.list to Trixie and run dist-upgrade, apt doesn’t want to remove anything, it just says my system is up to date.
