More often than not my Tumbleweed installations broke after receiving broken packages via almost daily rolling updates, so I've switched to a more stable distribution. It was just too much hassle with the constant stream of updates. I've got the feeling that Suse is field-testing package builds from their OBS and is relying on users reporting broken software.
OpenSuse Tumbleweed should be renamed to OpenSuse Testing.
- dgan 3y agoJust.. Don't do daily updates? I run updates once per month, works good enough
- axytol 3y agoHow do you handle security updates? Can these be done separately?
- krylon 3y agoThe problem is that I can't (or don't know how to) separate security-relevant updates from the rest. And I have to admit, I'm the kind of person who is nearly incapable of ignoring a ringing phone; the permanent presence of that little icon in my systray that tells me there are updates available is not that easy for me to ignore. :-/ It's not a huge problem for me, all things considered, so I didn't have the motivation so far to look further into that. On Leap, you can choose to just install security updates, which is nice.
