That’s what I setup for my siblings whenever I can. I’m starting to get bored of doing full upgrades from scratch for them, but I only do them once or twice a year.

For Archlinux users like myself of course I could care less about Mint, but it cannot be denied that “normal” users appreciate intuitive and good-looking interfaces.

Install Debian instead and you will never have to do a "full upgrade" again.
