So you're running an insecure kernel? Our security churn is bad enough
right now that rebooting is something people do fairly regularly.
Yup, this desktop is running a kernel that still needs upgrading. I've
scheduled some time later this week to build a new one and test it
before I reboot the machine, but I won't be doing a yum update. When
I've got anecdotal evidence that updates have weeklong soak test time,
the barrier to entry is much higher, or similar, then I will do that.
