If you don't add anything to your world file, how do you keep anything |
| 11 |
installed and updated? Unless you just use sets, which is basically the |
| 12 |
same thing as putting a package in world, then it should be in the world |
| 13 |
file. |

There are times when versions are required tho. I know I do that for my |
| 16 |
kernel. I always keep my current kernel and my backup kernel version at |
| 17 |
least. Every once in a while, I go through and clean them manually. |

For some people, there may be other packages that need to be done that |
| 20 |
way. One of those "your mileage may vary" type things. ;-) |
