I guess what I was trying unsuccessfully to say is that GitLab is = probably a bad example as the standard/recommended install under Linux = is the Omnibus edition (which has its own Chef recipes doing the heavy = lifting w.r.t. application upgrades) whereas the FreeBSD version is what = GitLab terms a "source" installation (requiring post-upgrade manual = configuration). If you are using the official GitLab package from GitLab Inc. then you = are almost certainly using their Omnibus edition. I had a quick look = and couldn't find an official Debian GitLab CE package. I found one in = the Debian Sid contrib repository. A more apples-to-apples comparison = with FreeBSD's pkg would probably be to install upgrade that one. TL;DR: The ease-of-use is due to GitLab's packaging in this case, not = from Apt itself. Cheers, Paul. PS: I used to run GitLab CE under Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi quite a = while ago, but eventually switched to the FreeBSD version because = GitLab's resource needs came to exceed that which could be provided by = the Raspberry Pi. I have to admit the install/upgrade experience of the = Omnibus edition under Raspbian was sweeeeet.=
