To upgrade or not to upgrade - that is the question!
I haven't performed a distribution-upgrade since last December :-\ and so I still have xz-utils 5.4.5-0.3 installed.
Am I better off delaying performing a distribution-upgrade or is it more risky having my siduction installation becoming too stale?
eriefisher:
Your installations is already stale. The upgrade will be huge. I would do a complete back up then proceed. You really should be upgrading at least once or twice a week. Things can move fast in sid.
bad_aptitude:
Mine is a personal desktop setup and so not as mission critical.
I usually upgrade every 2 months (after a complete backup)
- longer when things are crazy such as new Debian or new KDE [ or new malware ;) ].
Indeed updates are huge; but for the past 18 years Apt has handled them gracefully.
