...Because Linux is inherently broken and cannot run vanilla builds of
software. Also repositories keep prehistoric versions of apps only,
backporting only the security issues fixes, which have to be manually
picked from the developer's VCS and manually patched in. So to fix a
bug in Foo 0.8.1 you need to upgrade your entire OS to get Foo 0.10.3
instead of simply installing 0.8.2 or 0.11.1.
