Do you update your Arch often (daily) or not?
Which would be better?

I figure, if I update every day, I’ll likely not expect any issues, so I’d be less careful. And if something goes wrong (cause I didn’t read the news or the PKGBUILDs), I probably won’t have time to fix it right now.
Whereas if I update monthly, it’s something I’m taking my time to do, read the news beforehand, pay more attention and will have scheduled some time for it.

What’s your take?

    I don’t think it really matters as long as you pay attention to both Arch news and the pacman logs. Don’t delay on resolving those issues and you’ll be fine.

    Personally, I update every day because I think its fun to see new software. I also have snapper trigger a automatic snapshot every time there’s a pacman change. Haven’t run into any issues so far.
