Would it be ok for your wife to run Fedora N-1 with only security- and
small bugfix-updates?
That would mean, Fedora N-current has the updates people like me loves
and Fedora N-1 (right now F-11) has only small updates like your wife
loves. Would also mean to be one release behind (nothing bad for
people who want less updates IMO).
