Re: how to prevent security update installation during stretch installation

[Long Wind <longwind2@yahoo.com>]

You're wrong, it has nothing to with money

internet cost used to be high in China

but that's very long time ago and

many broadband providers base their charge on time (e.g. a few months) not on data transfered

i don't like security update because i suspect it cause problem (some packaged can't be installed) during stretch installation last time

and i've used linux for a long time and i think it's stable even without security update. and installing update always takes time and space, and it offer little value

and since you haven't installed next update, your system is always insecure if you believe in security update

Thanks to all who reply!

I guess because he's in China and internet costs relatively much there.
