That would be a great shirt

Dusty can we have a shirt, pretty please?

I don't buy shirts.
I would definetly buy the "Arch Linux: Only 45% obsolete" shirt
By the way, I never doubted that Arch would top that list
Offline
wow this is pretty impressive...
although I'm skeptical of the Gentoo claim of 75% obsolete. One of the things I hated about Gentoo was how out of date it could get...unless you liked breaking things it felt like 95%! heh

If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

If Arch is 45% obsolete, what is an unpatched installation of Vista?

If Arch is 45% obsolete, what is an unpatched installation of Vista?
And compare that to openSuse that is 95% obsolete
Vista = epic fail.
Arch = epic win.

Here we go! Toying around with some stuff.
That website is relatively inexpensive to design custom clothing (That hoodie would be 42 dollars with free shipping).

So far, I must say that it is a pleasure to update my Arch linux without any problem. Even when Arch is considered a bleeding-edge ditro, I have not had any problem while updating it. I wish all the distros where like Arch.

I don't get the 48%....
From what I can see, [core] has 350 packages (175 x 2 arches), 32 packages are flagged out of date, [extra] has 3982 packages with 309 flagged. Note that each package has been counted twice (i686 and x86_64) as it was easier for me that way.
So unless a lot more need flagged, at this point of time ~10% are outdated.
Edit: I see... He looked at these packages:
alsa-utils, cups, emacs, firefox, gcc, ghostscript-gpl, gimp, glibc, gnome-desktop, gnupg, httpd (apache), kdebase, linux, NetworkManager, openssh, pidgin, postgresql, python, ruby, xorg-server
So ruby and python will probably be counted as out of date, even though ruby-1.9 is in [testing] and python3 is in [community].
