I'd have 2 snacks, over 10 years....

:( and that was my fault both times because I didn't read the announcement of required actions before I ran the update

Additionally, A update can ship a new stock version of a config that has fancy new options and some deleted ones, and your modifications to it in /etc can conflict.

Arch can either backup your version as .pacsave or install the updated file as .pacnew. It's your task to merge your modifications to the updated configs, and these files can slowly pile-up over time until something breaks.
