It seems that I gave a wrong impression, but we actually have a big
team of sys admins :)
so what are they doing then all day long since you still run 5.5
released 4 years ago followed by 5 minor-updates bringing
critical security fixes?
5.5, also termed Update 5, 30 March 2010 (kernel 2.6.18-194)[17]
5.6, also termed Update 6, 13 January 2011 (kernel 2.6.18-238)[17]
5.7, also termed Update 7, 21 July 2011 (kernel 2.6.18-274)[17]
5.8, also termed Update 8, 20 February 2012 (kernel 2.6.18-308)[17]
5.9, also termed Update 9, 7 January 2013 (kernel 2.6.18-348)[17]
5.10, also termed Update 10, 1 October 2013 (kernel 2.6.18-371)[17]
Well,
your question is definitely valid. Long story short - internal policies.
And we, DBAs, are managing the databases,
thus my initial question ...
and you are stating that you don't use the distribution packages
of MySQL so it is not affected at all from a dist-upgrade?
No, absolutely. We're using the Community and the Enterprise editions of
the Oracle's MySQL distribution.
