Sorry if I messed up the post. long time not post.
Had something happen I had not seen before. I use Bleachbit & MX Tools to clean up before I snapshot. I got a notice in bleachbit that an update was available. Never seen that before. Checked synaptic,not there. Used MX Tools & checked there. Found Bleachbit in MX Test. Is this ok to go with!

It's okay to update it if you don't mine the gawd-awful Client Side Decoration GUI change. One look at that and I went back to version 2.2. Just an opinion though... ;-)

We don't recommend that the test repo be left enabled--install and test packages one at a time. MX 19's TR won't push updates by default even so, but your MX 17/18 systems will.

You can do massive TR updates if you want, and so far it's been safe, but we can't support you if you do end up with a problem, since we don't know what update may have caused problems.
