If it's just that I could test them, but this still be no LTS version that I would look at. Just some background: these machines run CMake and some other software nightly builds, which starts ~3:00 and takes them until the afternoon. I have chroots for stabilization and keywording on them, and the tatt scripts will wait if any process of my buildbot user (that's just the name, not the software) is active. If the nightlies are done, then the tatt scripts will continue and hog the machine. I will do a kernel upgrade usually if the machine crashed anyway, which means every few weeks, and then I go to the most recent version. Eike
