In your scenario, Bob is an Admin. If Bob were *my* admin and had not |
| 7 |
taken the time to read the ChangeLog for the package and not made |
| 8 |
changes on the test network before making them to the production |
| 9 |
network, Bob would be looking for a new job after that coffee. Also, if |
| 10 |
Bob were not smart enough to not stay with the stable portion of Gentoo, |
| 11 |
which is designed to not have feature loss and other such problems, but |
| 12 |
was instead using the "testing" branch on production servers, then Bob |
| 13 |
would be looking for a new job and I would be looking for a smarter |
| 14 |
administrator. |

The whole point is that if you are blindly upgrading *anything* that you |
| 17 |
rely on for day-to-day work, that really there is only one person to |
| 18 |
blame, and that is yourself. |
