Hmm, two things, actually three:

1) I'd never use Mandriva on a server, because of the short support 
period, a server OS requires at least 4-5 years support lifecycles
(I'm not talking about MES here, just the normal Mandriva variants)

2) from my experience &quot;urpmi --auto-select&quot; does that anyway, it doesn't 
seem to differentiate between updates and backports (unlike drakrpm that 
correctly ignores backports when checking for updates)

3) I mentioned earlier that the packager would need to use good 
judgement and not include major incompatible version changes
