What do you mean?

I am not sure what you are taking about. My question is about APT.

This doesn’t seem to enhance my workflow at all. Seems I now would have to reboot, and I still need to find a separate tool to coordinate/stagger updates, like I do now. Or did I miss something?

Using scheduling is not a good option IMO, it’s both too slow (some machines will wait a week to upgrade) and too fast (significant part of machines will upgrade right away).

It seems that making APT mirrors at the cadence I want is the best solution, but thanks for the answer.

I can roll back with APT too, my question is how to do the staggered rollout.

Making multiple mirrors seems like the best solution. I will explore that route.

I was hoping there was something built into APT or unattended-upgrades, I vaguely remembered such a feature… what I was remembering was probably Phased Updates, but those are controlled by Ubuntu not by me, and roll out too fast.

I am not worried about upgrades so bad that they literally don’t boot. I am worried about all the possible problems that might break my service.

Go away. You’re here pretending that Ubuntu only does security updates. You have never received a bugfix from Ubuntu? And I am the one who doesn’t know what he’s talking about?

Why do you insert yourself into conversations with other people? I am the one who’s rude?

Which distro is image based and have the staggered rollout feature I’m after?

I find it hard to stay courteous in the presence of people like you, who reply without reading my post, call me “duder” and say I “don’t understand what I am asking for”.

Thankfully, I did get a great answer from someone else.
