what does backported mean

Posted by JM on 03/10/07 19:29

I installed a webserver based on scientific linux 4.4 yesterday (not my
idea, but my bosses) and after doing all updates (apt-get and yum) the
version of PHP was 4.3.9. Current version (at least for PHP4) is 4.4.6.
4.3.9 is 2.5 years old.
Scientific linux is based Red Hat Enterprise Linux so I took a look
there: same thing, but it mentioned that bugfixes were backported.
What exactly does this mean ? Does it mean that all/some of the changes
(bugfixes, ...) since the appearance of version 4.3.9 are applied to
your installation but that the version number of your server doesn't
change. Is there any means to know how up to date you version of php is
? Does my 'backported' 4.3.9 equals version 4.4.6 of 4.4.4 or ...
