Upgrades suck
Monday, October 13th, 2003I’ve been putting off upgrading my home machine from RedHat 7.3 for years, it seems. RedHat is making noises about end-of-lifing 7.3, so I knew if I wanted the latest security patches, I was going to have to upgrade soon. This weekend was it.
What a royal pain.
I’ll probably post later about the joys and sorrows of upgrading, but for now let me just say that if I could have postponed it another year, I would have.
This post will also serve as a test to make sure I’ve finally got all the bits re-installed. Thank you CPAN.
