What’s the big deal? For 20 years in the enterprise space it’s been yum upgrade -y && reboot into cron and no issues. At the day job I even had satellite (5 and that shitball 6) cronned up to do my promotion automatically (even when 6 had shit for scheduling and I had to cron-parallel-xargs a better one). All cron.
Hell, I barely pay attention to the email reports now. It’s been that long. Okay, prod updates on Friday night only; but that’s our only nod to risk. Because even after the metastatic fatberg that is Systemd, it’s still barely reliable.
What’s the added risk for Debian packages? Imperfect replacement? No signed manifest to compare against? What?
