Hi,

Today I installed all the patches in the DU 4.0E jumbo patch kit out of
desperation. I could not be bothered to figure out the dependencies and
only install those.

However, I was concerned about the following matter, and wonder if it was
wise.

Does DEQ regression test all the patches in the kit together? Do they
ensure that a patch for one problem does not cause other bugs, especially
in the presence of other patches?

Should one just install all the patches, or only the patches needed?


Regards
