</I>I have always used backports in a total way : if I want latest software
against stability, I take them all. Think about little dependencies that still
exist (vlc + ffmpeg, etc).
So I would say Mageia has two update modes :
- end user (security) mode (updates)
- power user (let's try everything) mode (updates+backports)
Each user will recognise himself in one of the two modes.
