Yes.

Support.

There has been no active development on the v4 line for
some time now.   The most recent release of that version
was almost three years ago.  Since then there have been
a *lot* of fixes and improvements made, which are only
available with the v5 releases.

Any reports of problems with a 4.2.x release will be
met with a suggestion that you try the current version
instead.

At the very least, you should probably upgrade to 4.2.6
which is the most recent version of the 4.2.x line.
(Or possible 4.2.7.pre1, which has a few additional bugs
fixed over 4.2.6.  But that will almost certainly be the
last activity on the 4.2.x line)
