<div class="gmail_extra">I've had good luck with dist-upgrades the last few times I've done them. The one lesson I learned is to not deploy services running over the system perl, ruby, etc... I use homebrew and rvm to provision perl/ruby to services. That way I don't have to deal with modules getting yanked out from under me when they rev perl. I do run over the system mysql, but that generally has never been a big problem. </div>
