Sing it. We're stuck on MySQL 5.0 in production because of this very
fact. Sometimes I pine for the days of Gentoo. Only sometimes.

Most package managers have provisions for holding a package (or the
whole repo) at a certain level.

Actually, the really nice thing about Debian, for instance, is that
their releases are all stable (assuming you don't follow Sid like an
idiot): you should never get stomped with anything. The bad news is that
you have to wait for a major upgrade in order to get that next version
of whatever - like MySQL 5.1 :(
