Re: How to use package from community-testing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello,

that's not always correct. This month I downloaded embree from IIRC
staging. In the past I did this with packages from testing, too.

You should not be recommending the use of partial upgrades, it is unsupported and will most likely cause issues.

That is one case in which the partial upgrade was useful, but this does not mean you should recommend it.

You can do that, but you should *expect* things to break. Up to and including
making your system unbootable. If you do something like that, you're on your
own, Arch is not designed for it. But it's your system, do whatever you want.

Well, you can do whatever you like, but if you complain about a "bug" because you did not follow the guidelines, then its a you problem and the arch staff will not help.

Something like this doesn't happen often, but from time to time it does
happen.

Sometimes people win when they gamble, does that mean you should go around telling people to gamble all their money? no!

The solution is not a partial upgrade, end of story!

Have a good night,
