Changes between Initial Version and Version 1 of Ticket #3709, comment 7

initial	v1
1		I think the default is now to always preserve the home folder. No matter whether you update via pkgman or if you use Installer. At least I don't remember having lost my Vision settings file in the last 1.5 years (neither on my pkgman managed nightly installation nor in my self-built Installer updated installation, and AKAIK there actually is a default one in the Vision package that only gets written to disk if there is none). I had more of a problem with stale config files once in a while that don't get updated.

2	2	Another inconvenience - if you go the Installer route - is that all packages in /system/packages are removed and you have to install every single additional package again (e.g. the wifi-firmware package you would need to have installed before you could go online to download said package...).
