     @slyecho Yeah I could understand keeping the current version and the previous version for this, but 7 versions?
     And Arch could also have a snapshots.debian.org equivalent.

     @lanodan Arch does not support installing multiple versions side-by-side. It just means these packages are upgraded more often.
