What considerations should I be making when upgrading packages on an older Redhat release? (eg, my collocate RH 7.2 box). I need the critical security updates current, while keeping everything manageable and smooth. I've researched building rpms from spec files (via source tarballs, or from src.rpm). Should I be building from the newest src.rpms available? Should I install from the newest tarballs? This brings up another question, do I need to upgrade to a newer redhat (or to the current fedora) release? If so, what's the best way to do that? Even if you can't be exhaustive, please tell me what you know. I'm sure there's plenty that can reconfirm what you have to say, and build on it to.
