This is bad advice. There is a reason why we bump library versions! What you could do if you can't wait for new packages and don't have the correct version of the library, is to identify the date/time when the library was updated and e.g. "cvs up -D 2014/12/05" (i.e. before the update) to fetch a copy of the source code for the library at the version you need, and build that.
