Updating your OS

How often do you /prog/rammers update your operating system? If you use Windows or Mac OS X, fuck off you aren't a programmer.

As scary as it sounds, I've never even considered using binary packages. It took me a day or so to get everything compiled and working, and (excepting problems which some times crop up in UPDATING) just rebuild shit overnight with portupgrade --batch -arR.

What kinds of problems are the binary packages giving you?
