+   While minor and patch-level updates are no problem and can be done directly in the

+   should be available in <literal>nixpkgs</literal> as <literal>pkgs.nextcloud19</literal>).
+   To provide simple upgrade paths it's generally useful to backport those as well to stable
+   branches. As long as the package-default isn't altered, this won't break existing setups.
+   After that, the versioning-warning in the <literal>nextcloud</literal>-module should be
