      Now that you mention it, that sounds like good advice.   
   I am too stupid to manage security on my computer. I'm   
   not even a Linux engineer. So I'll do as you recommend.   
   I think my compression libs are out of date and I've heard   
   there's a nifty one called "xz". Maybe I'll get that. When do   
   you advise me to update it again? This afternoon? Or is   
   tonight good enough?  :)
