What's the point in updating a server package like roundcube in LTS
to the version from LTS+1? I creates significant churn on the sysadmin's
side, which is better spent on upgrading the entire VM/machine to LTS+1.
Clearly not all packages are suitable for five years maintenance, so it's
better to not paper over the systems, but rather make this explicit.
Cheers,
