Today is the 13th birthday of my main workstation's @Gentoo Linux amd64 install. 13 years of OS updates across 5 PCs, no reinstalling.

Along those lines, do you normally go for the stable packages or the unstable? I found the stable ones fell further behind than I liked.
On this machine I ran stable for many years, but hundreds of lines of package.keywords later I switched to unstable. Stable on servers.

Keep in mind that "stable" is relatively conservative. "unstable" packages are normally stable upstream releases.

I've found that running Gentoo on a server is a hard sell to people. All I usually work with in that department is RHEL and CentOS.

I run 6 personally, plus the
@euskalencounter infra which is almost all Gentoo. Works great with a binhost and shared packages/config. - Show replies
