must...try...apt-get dist-upgrade....
Okay, so I am a bit scared of it. I love the idea of dist-upgrade, but am a little leary.
Any pros or cons on using it? I have in the past mostly just compiled new kernels from source and installed by hand in the event I needed a kernel upgrdade... Would using apt-get dist-upgrade be a nice way to upgrade to the latest fedora kernel release? (amongst other things).
also, I dont use kde or gnome anymore. just xfce. but i do use the occasional program from those distros (simple ones, eye of gnome, konqueror).
So, I don't know if i really need to upgrade the heavyweight environments for a couple of small things.
could i just do away with kde and gnome altogether (i think xfce has a wm i can use)...
just looking for any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, feedback, ridicule before i hit enter on dist-upgrade...
anything i should look out for as being a problem?
sorry for the scattered post...
