From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I always do that. Is that bad on pop os/fedora? I wouldn't know any different. Selectively choose what to update?

Apparently apt has a stroke sometimes. I don't think I've had an update fuck up this bad but it's better to read the output so you know what changed in case something stops working.

That’s by no means a routine upgrade though, the guy just “upgraded to” backports which you’re not even supposed to do. Not comparable to the soothingly boring apt upgrade of Debian stable.

True, it's just an example to always look at the output. I've definitely used that in Fedora to reinstall packages when something stopped working after an upgrade.

(Maybe this doesn't happen by itself in Debian but I wouldn't trust Ubuntu for example)
