Examples

  • I had hoped to run a testing version of PCLOS similar to testing as a rolling-release Debian but it looks like that isn't possible.

  • However, if I understand correctly, most packages will show up in the regular repositories very shortly anyway (which doesn't happen at all in Debian); so my rolling-release PCLOS will be a few days or weeks behind, which loses in bleeding-edgedness but gains in stability and utility.

  • The reason is that pclos is a "rolling-release" which means it evolves continuously rather than issuing periodic new releases.
