Upgrading a broken system often leads to an open-ended fight with broken
apps.    If you
backup anything important and do a fresh install you know you will get a
working system in
finite time.

It is amazing how fast two systems that start out with identical hardware
and software from
a disk image can diverge, especially when used by students.
