Patrick O'Callaghan:
That only happens if you don't make sure that your modifications
carry
over into the new version. I regularly update from one release to the
next, check the .rpmnew and .rpmsave files (using rpmconf) and haven't
had any problems.
That works, up to a point. From one release to another, some method of
doing something changes, apps and services get withdrawn.
