Hi
So I've decided to follow -current for real on my production desktop :-)
During my testing (about a month ago) I started with the OpenBSD 4.3
Release with a few packages installed on it.
After I built a new kernel, userland and X I found that those
pre-installed packages continued to work as before.
I was happy.
So here is the question...
Was I just lucky that the installed packages continued to work after
upgrading to the (then) -current branch?
Or to say it another way....
when one follows -current aggressively (ie. one rebuilds everything at
least monthly) should one opt to compile all software from ports, or is
the package system still useful and reliable?
My guess is that installing all software from Ports is really the best
and safest real option.
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks :-)
Sarah
