Well, it depends. For the stuff I maintain, I tend to follow
different
policies depending on the package:
- Library versions do not get upgraded in a stable release
- The more core a package is, it only gets updated with occasional
severe bugfixes - it is not ever rebased.
- More peripheral things, such as some desktop apps, get updated to
the latest minor bugfix version
Hard to say how much this works for everyone, though.
I think this is a very good example to go by.
