do what you think is good for you if YOU can't be sure what you do there where i work i test updates and look at the user-tables and that is why i fixed problems where root did not have the right permissions after upgrade to 5.1 what was not corrected with "mysql_upgrade" an rolled out without any problems the same way i currently roll out fedora 15 on 24 production servers because i know what i do and have the infrastructure to prepare such major-upgrades to do them finally live after all tests are successfull and the local cach- and internal-repos are filled so please do not tell other peopole on what knowledge they can rely
