However mostly configs doesn't need to change even on bleeding edge, only major upgrades to gnome like gnome2 to gnome3 broke something, however that doesn't happen too often. Also I was on CentOS a long time ago, even on servers, but it isn't good for projects with a dependency hell, i.e. when the project has some dependencies on newer operating system libs.
