Ah, maybe that's why I'm not running into as many issues as some others. Since I'm using Arch for my servers, I'm kind of treating it as such. I don't upgrade weekly or anything like that, no GUI stuff to deal with. It's installed in multiple VMs here on a dedicated machine without much, if any, intervention at all. Definitely nice to know this information, though, which is why I originally asked. I do tend to keep my eye out for any major issues before upgrading also and so far it's been working out for me (knock on wood).

Regards,
Nick
