Versionitis

versionitis \ˈvər-zhən-ī-təs\ (noun): A degenerative condition in which someone is compulsively obsessed with having the latest versions of everything.

Symptoms include picking distros based on package versions, constantly refreshing the package manger looking for updates, tracking upstream project pages for new releases and then contacting developers about why those versions aren't already in their distro and when they will be added, and more.

It is in all cases fatal, eventually resulting in the person collapsing into a shapeless blob on the floor, twitching with every major and minor release of a program until it gets into their distro, ad infinitum.
