I'm curious to know your approach to keeping your Gentoo box current without it becoming a full-time job. I'm not talking about maintaining servers - just your "daily driver", so to say.
How often do you sync with the current portage tree and compare it your versions in "world"? Should one do this once a week? Once in two weeks? How often to you update major components, like Xorg, kernel, and system tool chain? As soon as new things become available, or, say, once a month or so? The reason I ask is because I often don't have a lot of time to devote to system administration on a regular basis but do want to keep my box updated as much as possible. How do some of you non-developers balance system administration with your "day job"? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
