- Offerings like CoreOS/atomic/Containerisation all try to offer solutions to this, but the reality is they are far far away from being a comprehensive fix.
The #1 thing I like about Fedora atomic and CoreOS is the versioned state of the OS itself. If I have 23.79 and you have 23.79, we have the same OS, however that ends up being defined. Right now, package managed systems are next to non-deterministic what package versions they have across systems. There's no practical way to get an entire user base on the exact same version of everything, and then on flag flip them over atomically to a complete set of updated versions, rather than some packages being the new version and others being the old version, depending on what mirror they connect to and at what time of day. -- Chris Murphy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
