If you don't want to fiddle around a lot with packages (dependencies)
and prefer a system called 'stable' which IS in real stable and prefer
to have a distributor telling ALL bugs found and provides bugfixes,
which can be installed/patched without changing the whole distribution,
you should choose debian.
