Thanks.  That was my impression, and I had an update problem a year or
two ago, but i was my fault for skipping a stable branch.

Great, thanks.  I will adjust the wording a bit after you commit.  Your
English is great - I think the issue is getting the point  across to
people who have no idea the problem exists, which is always tricky.

(Really, nextcloud should be able to update across multiple versions,
but pkgsrc can't fix that.)
