Saw the post here regarding CentOS’s off-springs and a couple of people brought up the excellent point of: why play with fire? Let’s just stick to Debian.

The only disadvantage I currently see is the outdated packages, and I’m curious whether makedeb solves them. Does anyone here use it regularly? How stable and comfortable is it? Did you write your own PKGBUILDs?

    I’m using MX Linux, it’s Debian based, but I don’t think packages are out of date? They have their own repo, test, backport.

    But this makedeb is interesting nonetheless, I’ll bookmark it for when I want to try it.
