> distros don’t follow upstream as fast as possible Well yes, the testing is of course part of the 'as fast as possible' part. But I could've made that more clear indeed. > many buggy patches or issues that never got a backported I have yet to see those in CentOS. But I guess we won't be seeing a lot of CentOS at all in the foreseeable future :p > many buggy patches or issues that never got a backported I feel like thats mostly on them. There is a huge temporal overlap between LTS versions and you should have plenty of time to test. I think I'd rather dedicate one month every year to fully test and then roll out a new LTS version than be interupted by unexpected updates at random intervals. That being said: What a boring job it must be to backport security patches all day. |
