Nice track record! You may have used my tiny contribution to the kernel from ca. 1995 if you used a specific (but common) NIC at the time :)
I came back to Debian when it was 7 or 8 and installed it 6 months before the next release.
The upgrade notes made it very clear that in place upgrades are an abomination and that I will burn in hell if I do that. Or something like that.
So I reinstalled.
And took a Leo of faith in the next version by using "stable" as the distribution, apt dist-upgrade and all. It worked !
Maybe the alarming messages are now gone, good thing. I will be switching from arch to debian soon and stay there for ever.
When did Debian require a reinstall between versions? I've been upgrading in place since around 1996. In those early years, sometimes upgrades had rough spots but that hasn't been the case for at least a couple decades.
