Is it better to use the latest versions of libraries for development, or should I stick to versions that are available in slightly slower-cadence distros, such as the current Ubuntu LTS? Pros of sticking to Ubuntu LTS versions: It ensures compatibility with more “stable” distros. Cons: By the time my new features are ready for production, the next Ubuntu LTS may have been released, which may have moved on to the new versions of libraries anyway, which then means my project is *really* far behind.

I tried to update it but it failed to build, and I don't know how to fix it because it is docker. > -- > Alistair Buxton > [email protected] > _______________________________________________ > Xfce4-dev mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce4-dev _______________________________________________ Xfce4-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce4-dev
