Of course not. Nothing is perfect, and life's a bitch. However there is less chance that my system will get messed up if I upgrade Mandrake using urpmi than with Gentoo. It's the same with having the latest and greatest on any system. Mandrake Cooker or Debian Unstable/Testing have a better chance of killing my system too. > Further, I generally do not need to immediately apply patches.

Others can find problems for me, thanks... Then what is your point? You just finnished arguing that you need the latest and greatest before it is in binary form, but by the time you are done waiting, the RPMs and DEBs will already have been released. Are you arguing against yourself here? Jesse
