I'm surprised they ended up going with a non-immutable distro. They say their Debian-derived system is as robust as Ubuntu Core, but seemingly immediately contradict this by saying they're using apt to manage updates.
- GordonS 4y agoAren't they only using it for security updates though?
- stubish 4y agoapt updates are not transactional, so abort the update mid way and you have a partially applied update. Hopefully the packager was careful enough to ensure your system still boots and reapplying the update cleans everything up.
- nix23 4y agoYou can make a boot-enviroment-snapshot for active/backup. If anything goes wrong you boot backup, then again snapshot and repeat. That way you don't need anything more then apt/pkg etc.
