I've been running this way for about 20 years now, and it seems the right balance of new but consistent.Ĭlustering/storage pools are very optional, defaults are rather sane to my taste (I don't use clustering, may be yet, but use storage pool to define LXD stuff should reside on btrfs which has dedicated LV for that).Īuto update happens and I can understand your pain here with sealed machines/testing updates. What's nice is you can have both testing and unstable in your apt sources-on my machine I set the priority on my testing higher than unstable so I generally get the testing packages, but I can grab unstable if I need to. You can also use debian 'testing', which one step back from 'unstable'-packages are promoted from 'unstable' to 'testing' when if they've gone 2 weeks without a bug report of some particular severity (that I can't remember off the top of my head).

It's basically a rolling-release style thing-I put in a little cron-job that does `aptitude safe-upgrade -y` every night to keep me up-to-date. Normal debian stable releases are LTS style, unstable is where newly built packages show up first-so it will generally have the latest version of stuff and not be stuck a year or 2 back. Not exactly sure what you mean by modern, but I'd recommend debian 'unstable' (also called 'sid'). Looking for a way to get a modern debian (something akin to non-LTS Ubuntu)
