When you have a pice of software, that's really running stable which depends on software xyz, than you will do the hell and backport every new version of xyz into your software. You can do what you want, there are more bugs/problems than before. So I guess it is absolutely necessary to have a concept for this situation, and not to make preassure to the authors of a well working software, especially if they don't need the news features of software xyz. Only my opinion .....
