As you might have already noticed, I decided to take the risk of keeping
gcc-5.

I think that's reasonable.


Reason I don1t do like Ken: first my scripts are individual. For each
package-version  I have a package-version.sh. And I keep all old ones in
an "old" directory. This lets me compare when things get wrong.

I do the same, although my scripts are executable. I keep both old scripts and old package versions. For instance I was just looking at wget and have:

make-wget-1.13
make-wget-1.13.4
make-wget-1.14
make-wget-1.15
make-wget-1.16.1

And the associated tarballs.

However, this makes building a new system very slow, so, my work
updating packages is much better than when I need to start building a
new system for tagging. And the consequence is always a lot of tickets
accumulated.

Been there, done that.

Thanks again, and please, wish me good luck.

Good luck.  However I don't think you need it.  You make your own.
