The user must now install it. The user then uses it to upgrade to the next release. Now, it is there. It gets updated during the course of the use of the next release. Now, when it is time to go to the *next* new release, it is there and already updated from any/all updates performed just prior to the 2nd upgrade. Seems like silly reasoning to me. Why not just install it, so that it gets updated during the normal lifetime of that release, so that when it comes time to upgrade to the next release, it is already there and updated? -- Kevin J.
