Hi all, I'm beginning to understand the diffs between -STABLE, -CURRENT and RELEASE but I have a question regarding packages. I am using 5.2.1-RELEASE, and "pkg_add -r mozilla" installs version 1.5 or thereabouts of mozilla, 1.7 being the latest stable release. I have noticed that there is a much more recent (1.7) package of mozilla available from "packages-5-current"; can I install this package on my 5.2.1-RELEASE computer?
