Hi,
Ive been using my Ubuntu 12.04 amd64 installation for about a year. I have three partition - root, home and swap. Im using many programs and also many PPAs. Now, I generally prefer new installation to upgrade. Now, Im curious how safe would it be to just keep all the config files in /home and install a new (14.04) version of Ubuntu. Im afraid of uncompatible config files causing error and making difficult to find their roots.
What say you, would it be safe?
