Well, one thing that I know some people do is to manage your own repos
I think this is a very good idea. However, after giving it some thought, I had another idea. Since the universe of what we're talking about here is all servers, I am wondering how much updating there would actually have to be if I just synced to Current. Phrak has already said:
In addition, for server-type stuff you're really not going to have much
updated that often - my server sits for a few weeks without an update - and I'm
using packages from [unstable] and [community] too.
So, maybe it's not that big of a deal. In addition (although I couldn't find the message),
I'm sure someone had mentioned something about the fact that updates can easily be rolled back. (I really wish I could find that message. I use gmail for this stuff specifically to avoid having these kinds of problems.) Anyway, as a worst case scenario, one could simply maintain 2 different partitions and simply alternate between them with each update. It doesn't sound too bad to me. Any thoughts on this idea?
