Hello,

Is it a good idea to upgrade a package to a Release Candidate version,
such as RC1, RC2 and so on ? I think no because:

1) Maybe the RC version is not stable enough.
2) Maybe the package's final version doesn't release when
    oe-core/meta-oe releases, I think that use an older but stable
    version is better than new RC version usually.

Thanks

Robert
