I am saying constant fiddling with a mythbox is counterproductive. Once you |
| 14 |
have a stable system resist the tempation to update anything unless really |
| 15 |
needed or wanted. I would of course update mythtv itself if there are |
| 16 |
important bugs or desirable features, but a daily/weekly emerge --sync && |
| 17 |
emerge --update breaks more than it ever fixes on a box where stability is |
| 18 |
paramount to family acceptance. |
