A false dichotomy. You have numerous choices if you wish to stay with Ubuntu and its derivatives: * Don't upgrade * Install a parallel desktop environment, e.g., kubuntu-desktop, and evaluate its workflow with your current one * Pin (apt->dpkg) your desktop environment and perform an upgrade * Upgrade only your development tools Granted, some of those options require more intervention. -Dan -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
