I don't recall anyone in the thread asking for exact versions at the 
time of installation, just the same package set.

This would also require exceptions for ABI changes (libfoo1 replaced by 
libfoo2 or linux-image-x.y.z-1-amd64 replaced by 
linux-image-x.y.z-2-amd64). These should be rare on stable + 
stable-security and can be handled with the manual/auto installed 
mechanism.

Kind regards,
Andrei
