The 1.5.5 tag is the Docker image at the time that version 1.5.5 was
released. That is, it contains both the 1.5.5 code at that time, *and* all
of the dependencies at the time of the 1.5.5 release (libssh2, FreeRDP,
openssl, etc., etc.). The "latest" tag gets rebuilt when there are updates
to the base images - so, it may contain updated versions of FreeRDP 2.x,
libssh2, and other dependencies, even though the Guacamole version is still
fixed at 1.5.5.

When we release the 1.6.0 version, two things will happen:
* The "latest" tag will be updated to the 1.6.0 version of Guacamole, along
with the dependencies that are called for in that version of the
Dockerfile. The "latest" tag will continue to get updates as the
dependencies release updates.
* The "1.6.0" tag will be created and will have all of the versions - both
Guacamole and any dependencies - fixed to the time that 1..6.0 is released.
