i run an upgrade every day and it hasn't caused any issues
I haven't installed anything recently...I don't honestly know when it started, since I don't usually change things that often. I only noticed that the desktop image switching didn't work because I got tired of my current one and tried to change it, and noticed the behavior. It could have been broken for days or weeks prior to that...

You say you upgrade every day. That means you have extras-testing and extras-devel enabled?
