I meant generally. My experience with Ubuntu 16.04 is that I very rarely 
have to invest any time in OS problems; is that likely to become more 
with 17.04 or 17.10?

Yes, I was. But I think I know how to avoid that ‘fun’ in future: having 
a separate home partition now, I’d just overwrite the old version and 
install the new one from scratch.
