It does.  Running the unstable distribution assumes that you know what you're doing.  If you don't know the basics, it's best to run the stable distribution.

I don't necessarily know what I am doing. I learn as i go. The main reason for using the unstable is because it offers fresh graphics driver/components.

If you run a dist-upgrade instead of an upgrade, that will be the next step, but not necessarily the end of your problems.

Next step as in, it might pull in those packages that are kept back?

Hello folks, for some time now I have been seeing that some packages have been kept back from updating when doing "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade". As time went by, the list became bigger.. I am wondering what could cause that since now I have a lot of packages being kept back. I am using Devuan Ceres if it matters, any ideas what could be wrong?

The following packages have been kept back:
