Hi all,
This was discussed within a couple of threads in the last few months,
but I wanted to ask for final clarification before I go ahead with this
(yeah, I know, 'paranoia will destroy ya')...
I'm not afraid of an initramfs any more, but I've decided that I still
just really don't want

Is rsync -a enough for my relatively simple system setup, or would
using any or all of the other options suggested in those threads be
safer/better? Specifically:

Hey, all --
I have two systems, one of which got perl 5.16.1, somehow. My other
system is still at perl 5.12... and I'm having a heck of a time trying
to upgrade that system to 5.16.1.
Is there some trick that I should recall?

If you boot a different system to do the rsync, or, if you do it over
ssh, add the option --numeric-ids
I usually do

has anyone maybe already written ebuilds for brickd and brickv for
accessing tinkerforge hardware?

I managed to get brickd running here but so far no success with brickv.
Planning to run that with Nagios ...

An alternative to booting to external media, etc, would be a bind
mount of / and /usr on separate temporary mount points, then dumping
the data between them, leaving the existing system chugging along. A
re-mount of the current /usr in -o ro mode might not be a terrible
idea in that case. I had a

Of course. :(
Why 5.16.1? that is the lowest version that is ~arch; your next sync

Ah, well, I'm not running ~arch
