If I were able to know how to detect only "first update" that would be nice, but I don't have any idea to achieve that for now :( > I have explicitly put him in CC so he can consider that. > Perhaps he can also explain why he wanted to see this change happen. > Because I see no gain on getting the link to the same upgrade guide on every update: some times after you upgrade the kernel, I think we all are able to remember how to upgrade kernels . Maybe one option could even add a link pointing to the kernel upgrade guide from Handbook in its kernel section. That way, people could see they will need to follow some steps to upgrade kernels when an update for them arrives and, then, visit it in next kernel update (but, once they update the kernel, they won't need to revisit it on every update as they will likely remember how to do that) > I thought the goal of this eclass is to get rid of repeating messages > that are not that important from the elog.
