I have had good experiences with some things. I just do a few at a time.
For instance I have no more updates listed under the category "bugfix"
I had 4 and did them this lunch hour.
Some have dependency conflicts and unfortunately as far as I know it has no
dependency checking.
I wonder if anyone has gotten their updates list down to nothing...
