Hi, all.
I'm pretty new to Linux. Couple of months ago I installed Ubuntu 7.04
and everything has been hunky dory since. Now, I have a perfectly
working system and pretty much all the software I need, firmly installed
and smoothly rolling. So I'm wondering, is the soon-to-be-released Gutsy
Gibbon significantly better and/or more advanced in its features than
Feisty?
I know, it's probably too early to say for the most part. Also, I've
heard horror stories about dist-upgrading gone awry. And just thinking
about going through the Maemo SDK/Scratchbox -install _again_ is plain
hair-rising...
Still, I'd like to hear what other people in this NG think about it.
Dist-upgrading in spite of certain risks and all the hassle.
My philosophy is and always will be: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
That is, if your current distro is doing everything you need it to do
without any problems, why do you need to upgrade?
Because 'need' can be very subjective. Does that mean you don't upgrade
when you simply see something that would be 'very nice to have'?
