> Are you beginning to suggest doing partial updates in general to the system?
I suggest nothing, I just try to provide full information to enable
whatever choices people might want to make. If you are not already
interested in building the hurd yourself and doing delicate updates by
hand, then by all means just wait for Marcus to upload a new debian package
of the new hurd code. There are at least a few people who I expect might
want to test the new fixes themselves, including Marcus before he makes the
new package for everyone else to use.
