The reason we don't list some popular distributions here is because they ar= e not tested on our test infrastructure (our so called Autobuilder [1]). For that reason, listing untested distributions here would come at risk of breakage = for people without us being able to support and properly test things on our sid= e. Also, adding new distributions here comes at a cost, as we need to maintain= the package list over time for these distributions as well. I suggest you propose this change to the Wiki instead [2]?
