If you wanted that behavior with Debian, you can actually get it: that's what Debian unstable does. However, there's a reason why it's called unstable. :) Debian testing is a bit less aggressive by forcing packages to wait for a bit to be sure that there aren't serious issues, but the security support is not quite as active as it is for Debian stable. (I run Debian unstable on nearly all of my personal systems, Debian testing on my primary desktop, and Debian stable on my personal servers.) -- Russ Allbery (r...@stanford.edu) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
