Erm. I'm a debian developer and I didn't understand that, so I'm not
sure the rest of the readership will either... 

You are saying that the current 1.2.26 is now available for both
Debian 8 and Debian 7 (yay!), but there is possibly some gotcha about
upgrading if using this verison on Debian 7 (wheezy), depending on
which repositories are enabled? Do users need to care about that? If
so they will want to know what the tradoff(s) is(are).
