I'd rather recommend taking 2.0.3, which is nearly identical to 2.0.2 as far as Linux is concerned. Basically, it has two minor security fixes: a187689a60bfcf6 b1fe83b4fc b220c102899ec46 9ff00c2857 7f057d442266806 7408817015 (compatiblity with numerous broken IP camera firmwares) f4afe48347167b8 4f60b04d5b (avformat) 6feabad69fea1fc 85731b218a (audio scrobbling)
