I can attest to that. If you run anything that has a database, even websites and email services, keeping all that going across an OS upgrade is a real pain. With Fedora having such a short lifespan, that amount of pain means you end up leaving servers running with ancient un-updated software. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.16.11-100.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 22 20:02:12 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
