About six months ago, I tried the same thing. Unfortunately, production box has a hopelessly outdated liquidsoap and a few other problems (being FreeBSD). So I tried Debian which is fantastic, and I could get the latest versions of LS and Ardour. However, it doesn't come with mp3 functionality.
The problem seems to synchronizing the dev box (usually the latest stuff that I can update) to the production box with outdated versions (that I cannot update). The best solution is to do dev work, then try patch when things barf on the production one. So far, things have worked well with this approach; not ideal, but . . .
