Hi Jacob,
We have not extensively tested stretch for debathena-workstation.
If you are installing on your personal laptop, however, we strongly
suggest installing debathena-standard, which gives you a local home
directory, but also easy access to your Athena locker through /mit.
Debathena-workstation is mostly intended for shared, public computers.
Best,
Lizhou
