But I'm not sure how often I should update my system. In other words, what is the difference between the installed and available package in

kde4-dolphin 4.2.1-75.5(4.2.1-75.7)?

I am not an expert, so take my words with a pinch of low salt. The righthandmost digit is the build digit. Next to that is the patch number. I generally go by patch numbers. Now if things seem to work well for me then I do not bother updating but wait till the next release by KDE.

Understood. Thanks.

It did :)
