Do you update your Arch often (daily) or not?
Which would be better?
I figure, if I update every day, I’ll likely not expect any issues, so I’d be less careful. And if something goes wrong (cause I didn’t read the news or the PKGBUILDs), I probably won’t have time to fix it right now.
Whereas if I update monthly, it’s something I’m taking my time to do, read the news beforehand, pay more attention and will have scheduled some time for it.
What’s your take?
You’ve given me hope for my MythTV box.
It hasn’t been upgraded for over a year, so with ~700 updates totalling ~1GB, I was toying whether a total rebuild would be necessary… obviously a backup beforehand, but maybe doable then…
My laptop is updated almost daily, but some other devices maybe monthly…
