as far as i remember i alway could go thru the changelog to update my scripts and found all affected packages without running into an error. > I suppose in the future we should say something like: > > Updated to gcc-9.5.1. Affects package2, package3, and package4. please do so. i can understand you and the other editors don't have the time to mention every little change in the log.
