"To me, the latest is the latest my OS provides me. If #curl maintainers dont care about pushing the latest into the OSes they support, it's not me to blame. I think curl maintainers should push Centos to provide the latest to all users. What's the purpose of you fixing multiple bugs and security holes if you dont spend time to make it available to the broader audience?"
We are obviously all just too lazy.
@bagder The constant push and pull of users and developers to always have the latest, and sysadmins and distributions who prefer ironing out everything instead of seeing flavor-of-the-month bugs pop up left and right... It's a tale as old as time.
@radon I mean, the distribution they use is pip/cargo/whatever then, not whatever they use as a host (as it doesn't matter then).
But yeah there's plenty of ways to combine both approaches, and I wish language-specific package systems would handle them more gracefully than they do (looking at you, cargo).
