: openbsd team work with security in mind.
: automagically-download-patch-install-upgrade is NOT security. if you
: have 1/2 systems, you do not need no automation. if you have a lot of,
: you can waste a couple of minutes to install a build-my-binary patchbox.
: this is insane, think about what will your boss do if your automagical
: upgrade broke your mysql (like debian does). think about it a while.

Think about what your boss will say if someone broke into some of your
systems because of a leak in the daemon because he brake in a few hours
after midnight. If your system had applied the patch at midnight (or so)
the system would still run secure.

And btw. You don't have to run such an update-tool/daemon on a production
systems. But maybe on your firewall, on workstations, on servers not needed
for production...

If you apply a binary patch to a production system and your mysqld will
go down after that, you will have the same problem too...
