Be carefull Daniel with using the latest state of the art.
It is nice to use them for private projects but not for 
redistributable components. Not every distro has it out of the box.

The starting linux user is already happy he get gambas compiled.
Forcing the upgrade of all distro components, wich may be not 
available is not nice for them.
Special the major components as GTK and QT wich can require to 
recompile all other applications also.

I had it in the past with curl for the net component and suse8.2
Upgrading curl from source was corupting the yast installer.
It was not easy to restore the old and correct curl without Yast.
Or recompile Yast myself, but to get the sources I had to use yast.
I disabled the gb.net component at upgrading gambas. :(
