I've searched the forums here and with Google a few times and I never really found anything that answered my questions.
Currently I *try* to use
swaret to keep my system up to date. Admittedly I don't do it as often as I should, but
every time I've used it I'll spend 20-30 minutes downloading and installing the updates .. and then the next 4-5 hours trying to get my system working again like it was before. I know there are logs and such that all the guides and posts I've found say to check, but I haven't been able to find them and/or I don't know what to do when/if I find them.
So I guess my questions are:
-- Is there a guide/tutorial somewhere that walks you through the updating process in excrutiating detail?
-- Is swaret the best utility to use to update?
-- Is there any way to "undo" the things I do with swaret?
Along the same lines:
-- How do I restore packages I've removed with the
pkgtool? I try to use
pkgtool to restore them but nothing happens.
I feel like I'm making a lot of progress with Linux/Slack, but this is still one of the things that I'm still
completely lost on and it seems like the more reading I do the more confused I get.
