Ah, yes, Alpine seems very nice. Wondered how itâs maintaining/upgrading in the long run?
(Been running Debian and unattended upgrades for a long time. Think I started out with Debian 2.0, or was it 2.1, ran Linux FT, Slackware and RedHat before that.)
I would be very careful doing this. The minor revisions seem to come out quite often, and unless you check manually, you could miss a step.
I suppose you could parse Index of /alpine/ and decide what to do, but doing a blind âupdateâ will stop working when your subrevision is no longer current and/or there are no security patches for it.
Just keep in mind that itâs not the same as other distributions that tend to autosync subrevisions - which most of them will do. It doesnât attempt to. Thatâs all up to you.
