# This option makes it easier for Britney to handle transitions as she
# will be allowed to keep old binaries around if they have reverse
# dependencies.
#
# This requires that your archive tool is capable of handling binaries
# without a source (or multiple versions of the source package in a
# given suite).  The "old" source will *not* be listed in the output
# for binaries that are retained like this.  DAK is known to handle
# this and will keep the "old" source in the target distribution as
# long as it has binaries left.
#
# - leave it blank to disable it
# - use ALL to enable smooth updates for all the sections
# - naming a non-existent section will effectively disable new
#   smooth updates but still allow removals to occur
