All joking aside: I've been maintaining about 4-5 Debian machines, all
using Debian testing and basically all obtained by cloning and updating
between them, hence all deriving from my "root" install performed some
time around 2003 (onto a Thinkpad X30 which I still use, still using
that same Debian testing).

While most "apt upgrade" are somewhat similar among those machines, I'm
surprised at how often I notice significant differences.
