I am the perfect user to test it on.

I am the one who just has used sid for the last 20 years and all I do is
aptiude update; aptiude full-upgrade
not even using any GUI, curses, etc.

Anyway all those cool names "bookworm" or whatever, no, not even "in one
ear and out the other"... they never even get to one ear.

I'm like grandma who never watches the news. Wouldn't know if they
changed the flag until one day I looked on top of the post office.

Anyway to test it on me, "you'll need to give me a special cellphone
(.deb) that beeps when there is a (test) national alert", so as not to
bother other users.
