For my normal use, I decide at the time I run sysupgrade whether I want to update packages or not (if it's just a small bump in base, or I'm updating to test something quickly and it won't matter about packages, then I'll often skip it to save time - also I'll skip it if I know there's a major pgsql update in the way). I'd say my "more common" case would be to _not_ update. > for permanent usage, I would recommand using existing facility: the > /upgrade.site script. That's handy and I didn't know about it (though it does break /u<tab> for /usr tab-completion though :p). I don't think I'll use it for this usage but it's nice to have.
