Postponing upgrades (of some packages) for a while (days or weeks, at 
most) is indeed a necessity from time to time in unstable.

However, at some point you do have to deal with it somehow[1] and let 
the system reach current unstable, otherwise you'll encounter a 
situation that is not supported at all (like managing packages from 
current unstable with a 'dpkg' from pre-stable).

[1] this may involve removing a specific package that is causing the log 
jam.

Kind regards,
Andrei
