When an update becomes available for a particular piece of software, if I run

aptitude changelog <name>  

I will see urgency as either low, medium or high.

How is it decided which category a fix falls into? And also, should I treat 'high' to mean 'install asap' and 'medium' to mean, 'install when convenient'?

Is there a best practice to follow on how soon high medium or low fixes should be implemented?
