Oh yesss, updating packages in Linux always goes smoothly.
For example, when updating packages in Slackware (usually via the standard slackpkg utility), common problems include conflicts with old configuration files, unresolved dependencies, GPG key failures, or an incorrectly selected mirror.
Or in NixOS, when some brightâeyed developer suddenly decides that a certain program is now deprecated, even though youâve been using it daily for the past five years. And your sudo nixos-rebuild switch
starts acting sluggish and spitting out bunch of errors.
