Oh, put that thing away, Samurai. We all know what's going to happen. You'll swing your sword, I'll fly away, and probably say something like, "I'll be back, Samurai!" And then I'll flutter over the horizon and we probably won't see each for... about a week. And then we'll do the same thing again.

each release is supported for only one year, right? i don't want to reinstall that often, and i don't trust the upgrade process not to gently caress something up. i bet fedora is p nice though, I run centos 7 on a VPS and it's good.

IIRC with fedora, you have to add third-party repos to get things like multimedia codecs. how does that work when upgrading to a new release with fedup? do you have to remove all third-party repos and packages before upgrading or something?
