That is seriously bad advice - you will need to a) Compile your own versions b) Resolve any conflicts with the rest of the distribution c) Test all your apps with the new versions Best practice for Servers is to maintain the versions simply applying security patches. I would suggest that you i) Ask this firm to explain exactly what they are hoping to achieve. ii) Talk to whoever pays the bills and ensure they don't get paid for producing this nonsense.
