If the Debian maintainer has any idea what he’s doing, then this is likely to be more stable than upgrading to a new release that introduces new features and possibly incompatibilities. Fortunately, most Debian maintainers have a very good idea of what they’re doing.
- petsos 14y agoLikely yes. But if I had to choose between the original developers and someone that has to maintain 20 different packages, I will chose the original developers.
- claudius 14y agoI imagine few maintainers to maintain 20 different packages, and if they do, they are likely related in some way – and then I trust a Debian maintainer more to gauge the impact of a new version on the system than some upstream maintainer, who likely even uses some other distribution. But if that works for you, then great :-)
