Not for the average user who has no idea how to build their own packages and is probably not even comfortable with the command line. The latest version of all the leading distros (Ubuntu and Fedora at least) supports this OOTB - for many users it will be a simple "apt-get dist-upgrade" or "yum upgrade" or whatever. I did not realize when I wrote the above that Gentoo still does not support this - I just assumed it did because the whole point of Gentoo is to live on the bleeding edge ;-) Lee
