Quick search looks like
sudo apt autoremove
sudo reboot
is safe and only removes some dependencies that are no longer needed.
Does this sound right?
I run stock Debian 11 but did install Gnome DE because I did not include that in initial install. But I don't use it.

Appreciate it, I use librewolf and Tor. Definately checking out Nicotin+. Thank you
testing broke more things for me awhile ago, and i read somewhere unstable is better in this regard
also main reason i use unstable is because i'm constantly developing things and require some newer packages
>why would you use debian then
i guess i could just opt for ubuntu, but i like debian and used it for servers and it served me well + i don't just debian
the rest of the programs i run through libvirtd/qemu on fedora/ubuntu/windows with virtio-gpu or VFIO

Why?

sudo reboot

You need to reboot after you update so that grub uses the latest kernel

Thanks, that did it.

>Kernal
Guilty of focusing on topic at expense of spelling and probably punctuation
* kernel
* nicotine-plus
ty Herr Anon, no excuse for being sloppy.
Kernal is the old Commodore spelling.
>updating Debian
physically impossible to do more than once per decade.
ok and now? the update broke 2 programs i use (blender and maim have been kept back)
>average security vulnerability enjoyer
kek the absolute state
ubuntu stable is based on debian unstable
Yeah and just look how that's working out for them.
kek don't expect stability when you use sid (unstable)
is openbox even good? what panel are you supposed to use with it? do you use lightdm for your display manager? what is the basic setup like?
depends on what you want, for awhile i used startx upon boot in tty, now i use lightdm
for panel i use tint2, altough you could just use xfce4-panel if you wanted (only install the xfce4-panel package)
why are you using sid? is testing not good enough?
i have kernel version 5.17.0-1

>updating things that just werk
>using desktop linux
using desktop linux is fine, using desktop debian linux is moronic
wasn't there some program to switch kernels on a running machine? is it a gnu utility?

just reboot your system, don't be autistic dude
I miss that cpu so much. I cannot believe I fell for the new hardware meme. The Ryzen meme, the DDR4 meme, I fell for all of it like a consumer.
You are a consumer. Don't make that mistake again. Join the used hardware chads
Ehmm...and what's the vuln anons? it's a big deal? why?
Did i miss the point completely and OP is just saying to update Debian because Debian users rarely install updates or something?
Well, then this thread is just a fricking waste of bandwidth
no, the stable repo just upgraded the kernel like a few hours ago
Stupid question. Can you download debian iso from terminal on Arch?
wget https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/debian-11.3.0-amd64-netinst.iso
I haven't updated in a few weeks, thanks for the reminder anon
>lesbian
