 Hey, 
  
 I would love to see signal-desktop in Debian. If upstream is that aggressive 
 with old version, than yes the normal Debian stable is not working for 
 signal- 
 desktop. 
 But it can be used in unstable/testing and -backports.  If forky release is 
 taking place you can use a release-critical bug to make sure that it does 
 not 
 end up in stable on purpose, if no netter solution is found until than.

 Yes, there are some reactions and a lot of open questions. But please don't 
 see them as negative feedback. Several questions need answers, when forky 
 will 
 be released, but that is a lot time to find answers.  I would encourage you 
 to 
 start packaging signal-desktop and than we can find answers along the way. 
 A lot of discussion will get easier if signal-desktop is packaged, as than 
 everyone can look at the package; sneak into the code etc. 
  
 Maybe release-team will accept a solution like for browsers to get new 
 versions shipped to stable. But this discussion, about stable updates for 
 signal, you should do with release-team via a bug on bts. But this 
 discussion 
 is a lot easier, if there is signal-desktop packaged, as than release-team/ 
 security team can look at the code/package and together you'll find a 
 solution. 
  
 Regards,
