> problematic "rolling" updates

Rolling updates for me have not been problematic.

I've had a few updates that gave an error message, and they were easily fixed in one minute after searching the arch website.

I think one was a key expired - I had to manually update it and redo the update process.

The other I can recall was a package that had become obsolete/conflicting and a question had to be answered.

In general rolling updates are a tiny blip every few months.

In comparison, the several debian based distributions I've run have been a "lost weekend" type of upgrade for major updates.
