If you want to be cautious, I have somewhat higher confidence in the versions of Emacs packages published on the Debian repositories[1] than the ones on ELPA/MELPA.

The downside is that not every package is packaged for Debian, and the versions are a bit stale.

That's a bit of an understatement, about 1% of all emacs packages are in there :)
