I'd kind of hoped to be able to hold off updates for a few days just to be safe if possible. But since it's not, oh well, that's part of the learning experience
You don't have to run the auto-updater. I often shut that down, in when traveling, preparing for a new software release, or working on some deadline where I don't want any risk. Seldom for more than a month. Every Rolling Release has this "we are infallible" mind set till they get their first big humbling and humiliating majorly horked up update. Happened to Arch. Happened to Manjaro. Happened to Gentoo. Happened to Sabayon. Tumbleweed isn't a true rolling release, its sort of a peudo-rolling distribution based on a cyclical distribution, so it might be somewhat less prone to this problem. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done.
