because 2.18 was built when it comes out
and the built takes quite a long time to finish,
and i didn't use it after built it because something wrong with xorg,
and i have to use it now because my old 2.14 doesn't work any more.

and i dont know if 2.20 will consume more cpu on my old computer.

and more important, maybe i should not say here:
I think it would save time if 2.20 can use something from 2.18 or even 2.12,
so I dont have to compile everthing to upgrade from 2.18 to 2.20,
I dont know if itis possible.
