I am not familiar with these extra repositories but by the naming, I
would suggest not to use 'archaudio-preview', 'archaudio-nightly' and
'archaudio-experimental' if you want the maximum stability. All these
look like they aren't meant for daily use since there is already a
'archaudio-production'. So unless you want to test packages it might
be better to stay away from these.
