o Comment out "Untouchable" in katie.conf[-non-US]
-o Run apt-ftparchive generate apt.conf.stable[-non-US]
-o Copy tree/directory for stable to apt.conf[-non-US]

-
-o Remove tree/directory for stable from apt.conf[-non-US]
+o Run apt-ftparchive generate apt.conf.stable[-non-US]
+o Run 'ziyi stable' ** FIXME: requires apt.conf.stable stanza for stable in apt.conf
