Yes, it is very frustrating when updating CI with lcitool when youj want to update the version of one particlar distro, and lcitool forces you to also replace a different distro, and the latter cause breakage for some reason. This has hit me time and time and time again. IMHO it is time to change the policy for lcitool, such that we do NOT remove old distro versions for *at least* 1 year. This will give us flexibility to update individual distros without having to do every distro in lockstep. It will let us debug problems with certain new distros, without blocking updates of the rest of the world.
