This is not what Legacy is here for. We don't update just because we can. We backport security because it provides maximum stability. If a person wants a 3rd party software set that requires newer tools, they can get the newer tools themselves and deal with the compatibility and stability issues themselves.

" Version 1.2.2 eliminates a potential security vulnerability in zlib 1.2.1, so all users of 1.2.1 should upgrade immediately."
I'm no expert to firmly disagree with you. With such a small changelog, why not go for 1.2.2 and be done with it in this special case?
I like their slogan: "A Massively Spiffy Yet Delicately Unobtrusive Compression Library"
