No, but since I'm on 15.10, which by definition has a limited shelf-life,
this is an issue I'll be watching very carefully.

Maybe 3 days into a new distro version, even an LTS, was a little
bit quick. I'd be putting in an older LTS if I could and changing up
later when things settled. (I was forced onto 15.10 to fix a wifi bug.)
