Setting AUTOCLEAN to no, generally, will make a mess (in my |
| 16 |
opinion). Then, ALL old copies of things that are updated will be left |
| 17 |
installed. One ends up with multiple installed versions of every |
| 18 |
package on the system eventually. |

Maybe just for that one package it would be okay. But it sounds |
| 20 |
like the wrong answer. |
