Ah, but "the latest" is a) a moving target, and b) not what I would ever
use in a development or production environment, nor at home, unless I
really did want to spend time debugging the system. In fact, I'd normally
*NOT* ever install an x.0 release - I always wait for at least x.0.1 or
x.1, so that all the bugs found by the early adopters have mostly been
squashed.
