Safe to Update?

[jiyong]

What issue are you talking about?
Did you update and something broke, or you only read about it?

I'm referring to the kwincrash issue. I haven't updated because of it, and I didn't know if there was a future update that resolved the issue. I'm not well versed in Linux yet and don't feel confident enough to administer fixes as issues arise. Don't get me wrong, I can follow instructions and cut and paste terminal commands, but if I accidentally made a mistake that caused another issue, I wouldn't begin to know how to fix it.

I think I have seen these crashes a couple of months back, but at least for me nothing was broken on a disastrous level.
The last couple of months I haven't seen any KWin crashes.
But perhaps there are certain combinations that might still trigger it.
Were you doing anything specific to trigger it?

Looks like Manjaro has released another stable update yesterday (16-12).
So far I only had to do some stuff when they changed the update servers and haven't seen any issues with updates recently.
