I am using woody as a postgresql server in production. I wanted version 7 and testing is *mostly* safe if you don't go hog wild installing packages. I haven't had too many problems.
| 2) We upgrade to testing. | | Is it safe? <image of Marathon Man>. Who is running production servers | on testing? what if any issues have arisen? I'm actually running 2 out of 6 boxes on testing (4 production, 2 playground). Other than the expected X configuration problems and a few ill-timed keystrokes, I am doing fine. I have not gone to a 2.4 kernel in production but I am comfortably running 2.2.20. For the production machine I started with a clean install of potato and went straight to woody. Less problems than a configured system upgrade. | 3) We build the Debian packages from testing on stable. IMO not a good idea... dependencies, dependencies, dependencies. You'll end up basically upgrading to woody anyway, just do it to start with. Hope this helps, Brooks Brooks R.
