Hello folks, my question is not critic but just learning purpose. Because in the Debian universe I always assume that there is a good reason behind each activity, no matter if I understand it or not. Here is one I don't understand. Today (9th December '22) pyfakefs 4.6.3 was migrated [1] into testing. But the latest stable release at upstream is 5.0.0 release two months ago [2]. So why does a Debian package maintainer invest time and resources into packaging an out dated version of a package? Greetings Christian [1] -- <https://tracker.debian.org/news/1396406/python-pyfakefs-463-3-migrated-to-testing/> [2] -- <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pyfakefs/releases/tag/v5.0.0>

The version that migrated to testing on 9 December was just a bug fix, see [3]. Version 4.6.3 was initially packaged on 12 September [4].
