That's an unstable version from more than two years ago.  This is a
combination that does not exactly make a lot of sense since unstable
versions are likely to contain short-lived bugs and features.

If upgrading is a horror for you, you should only be using stable
versions.  Using unstable versions makes sense only when you are
planning on frequent updates.
