+</I>I'm going to hope that Mageia's backports have a better track record for
+me than Mandriva's has. A backport of Firefox 3.6 disabled the help
+system for Gnucash, just as I was in the middle of trying to learn how
+to use it, and a backported hplip was a disaster with my printers. To be
+fair, a backported Gimp upgrade worked just fine, as did a recent
+VirtualBox. Even so, that's only a 50% success rate, not particularly
+encouraging.
