Do I need to be a computer programmer now to figure out what files I can update safely
and which
ones I should ignore, keep, throw-out...ect.ect..
Now I know I'm new to this, but this seems a little ridiculous.
The only files that I'm familiar with are the ones that I touched durn

turn etc-update loose. Usually it's hosts, make.conf,
fstab and files that you have to edit and setup that I do
manually. Most of the files below you can let etc-update
have it's way. I don't know about dispatch-conf.

You don't need to be a programmer at all - that's much harder. What y

I haven't seen anything that "are obviously a computer programs".
The scripts under /etc/init.d appear pretty regularly in the
etc-update list. You forgot about those.
