sometimes i check release docs and/or errata: https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/i386/release-notes/ produced via: https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/ddp/manuals/trunk/release-notes/ i had the major changes go through so long ago that i don't even remember it happening (the blessing of senility ? :) ) because i keep a second bootable partition a few versions back i am a bit more brave/stupid at times and just do the usual routine: ===== $ apt-get update $ apt-get upgrade # and then see what is held back before doing the $ apt-get dist-upgrade # if the dist-upgrade reports a ton of changes i # might break it down into steps like doing the # kernel and basic tools first (by naming the # individual packages on the apt-get install) # once in a while during the past few months there # have been RC bugs files which made me hold some # packages for a few weeks to a month or so but # eventually those were resolved and nothing has # popped up in the past few weeks. # songbird
