Re: [orca-list] Manjaro and orca

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel panix com>]

Sonar merged into vinux and before sonar merged they switched their base
to antergos.  The archlinux system isn't for beginners since it uses a
rolling release policy which puts those who update on the bleeding edge
of latest packages.  Packages could break temporarily until updates
become available in archlinux.

 I will say that Arch Linux, and manjero,  distributions that are based off of Arch, are Rolling releases, 
unlike ubuntu and Debian and which you have to upgrade the entire distribution, once a new release comes out.
