I just run my home web server. I try to keep my system as default as
possible to avoid updating problems, so I install basically from OSS.

I do other  basic stuff on this single machine so I need some stuff from
NON OSS and Packman, too, but all the server software is from the
default repos.

I also run a few guest OS:s on VirtualBox on this machine
Current repos are just those mentioned.

I would just like to have a "continuously rolling" up-to-date server
with no need to big upgrading steps.

In my dreams the kernel is also updated on-the-fly, without booting,
I just dream of once "installing it and then forgetting about it"
