Yes, you have to look at what it wants to update. If it's
a file you edit then see what it wants to change. I have
some on my list (make.conf, fstab) that I always do
manually. You can't just tell etc-update to run and let
it loose.

Again, when you run etc-update, it will *LIST* all of the
files it wants
to update. You could probably 'cat' that list to a file
too.
Somehow it managed to overwrite my /etc/fstab which I
wasn't to happy about.
