Michael is right. Updating online works 99.8% of the time. The 0.1% time it will corrupt random bits of your file-system, and 0.1% of the time it will leave you vulnerable to the security issue you thought you just "fixed". The only way to fix this so that online updates are safe is to redesign the centralised shared package model we use for distributing applications. The workaround is to use offline updates. This moron has spent about 10 years working on the issue.
