Yes, for some distros (Arch) that always allow bleeding edge releases. No, for some distros (Ubuntu) that always prefer stable applications. The Debian maintainer for LMMS was MIA last I knew, so Debian will be stuck at 0.4.10 until someone can update it. Ubuntu specific: When a new release of LMMS comes out, it will automatically be checked out by launchpad when I point the package to look at the GitHub stable branch. So when the next release comes along, if it is before feature freeze, I can get the new version into Ubuntu. If a new version comes along after a release, you will have to use/make a ppa. ESPECIALLY for LTS. Those are *very* hard to get new packages in, although possible, but usually only security fixes (with exception to certain programs, like Firefox)
