Yes, it's an important point for development servers. But then, it is your development server and you can choose whichever option suits you best. Some people need the latest PHP RPMs, some don't. The Blades updates are designed to update standard, supportable servers. Production servers (i.e. the ones we are paid to support) do not require updates over and above those specified. There is a non-trivial amount of work involved in updating a set of packages and ensuring that they are consistent. We do this when we are building releases. Between releases we provide updates for security or urgent fixes. I think you'll find all other vendors take a similar approach. Otherwise you make no headway on future releases. Gordon P.S.
