RF> Tonight I dream of patching all of my servers in 20 minutes flat... Soon The main disallow of that is you must do manually update config files by mergemaster. That process cannot be fully automated on current technical level (we have no AI :). And I don't think it really needed to everyday system update, especially on production servers. I'm using daily sources update but touch my server's binaries on security issues only. I have a funny story for that: The programmer's son comes to the father and speaks: "Daddy, why the sun ascends in the east, and comes in the west? ". That it asks: " And you are the own eyes saw? " - "Yes". - " It ascended in the east and came in the west? " - "Yes". - " And you saw it not once? " - "Certainly". - " For God's sake, do not touch anything there!!!!!!
