The only reason to upgrade from 5.x to 5.latest-stable would be if there&#39;s been schema changes in a minor version. This is very rare, but sometimes necessary - however it&#39;s easy to check by comparing system.install between 5.0 and 5.18 to see if any new hook_update_N() has been added.<br>

Thanks for the instructions on this. You included the step of  going  to 5.0 first, then the latest 5.x. I always wondered if  this was  necessary.<br>

AFAIK it shouldn&#39;t be; Earnie, can you explain why you did it that  way?<br>
<br>

<br>
Because it ensures that all updates marked for 5.x are made since  those updates are not carried to 6.x.<br>
