Install openSUSE
zypper ar -f obs://GNOME:STABLE:3.8/openSUSE_12.3 GS3
zypper dup --from GS38

Works great.  I'm always as close to current as I want to be.

And, no doubt, there are ways to do this on other distributions.  I do
not know about them [nor do I much care].  All I know about other
distros is that Ubuntu people are constantly constantly griping about
how that linux-for-humans distributions is borking them up [and at the
same time saying it is awesome...].   I've nominated a motto for
openSUSE of "LINUX for people who need to get work done", but I that
probably is two much of a snub. :)
