Would you be willing to consider shipping a snapshot of the git repository (as is available on MELPA)? This would be a temporary solution until upstream finally makes a formal release. Otherwise it looks like ESS will not be part of bookworm… Shipping a git snapshot is established practice in Debian, especially for situations like the present one. I am willing to help if needed.
