The OS? Never. I treat it like an appliance that once it works I never
touch until I have to. So if a Myth upgrade requires newer versions of
packages, I upgrade those as needed, etc. Saves a lot of headache when
things break because you upgraded the OS and all it's packages only to find
it breaks something.
