So, if you tell me that there are rolling release distributions that never experience package build errors, I simply don't buy it.In 25 years using different Linux distributions, I've never seen such behaviors.
I've been using Void - a rolling release distribution - for 2+ years now and it never happened either.
If you just tell me they handle it differently (by just keeping the latest successful build), that's a different story, and it's kind of "hiding" the problem. Whether that's better is probably open for debate -- it sure avoids the typical temporary unavailability of packages, but the cost could be subtle incompatibilities with "funny" results at runtime.
