This would be the best approach, but thinking about 2.3.2, in fact, it does
not worked as a really LTR, because if I remeber well, it never received
any minor fix. That is, 2.3.2 was the LTR version, and never had any fix in
this two years.

So, I don't know if we have any benifit of wait for a new LTR, over just
choose any newer SAGA version and work with it. 'We' here necessarely
includes Linux packagers and OSGeo4W.

Thoughts?

Best regards,
Pedro
