Dependent on the available build capacity and resources of course, a
good practice has been to support stable distro releases as long as they
have long time system support (LTS). However new approaches and changes
continue.
I.e for OpenSuse releases that I know, the free Leap 15.x has had
benefit of being binary compatible with SUSE's Enterprise version (SLE
15.x). SLE in the future is going to be replaced by a new
container-oriented SUSE's Adaptible Linux Platform (ALP) with focus on
servers without inherent desktop.
Therefore the next Leap 15.6 June 2024, with 18 months support until Q2
2025, will be its last release.
Leap on its side will be replaced by OpenSuse:SlowRoll with stabilized
pull from the faster rolling OpenSuse Tumbleweed.

Rob,
It is really important to have packages available on the latest
releases as soon as possible so that people who do have to keep the
O/S upgraded, have some packages available right away. And as you
already know, there are only so many partitions available to use for
the operating systems so something has to give !!
AppImage is always available to run just about any where. BUT, I
realize that as a programmer, the advantages of the package can be
more desirable. That said, ELIVE has the 3 latest Debian packages
available (as announced on the News on the cinelerra-gg.org
<http://cinelerra-gg.org> website) and Bullseye, version 11 package is
at:

I'm always happy when folks create packages, and am sensitive to how
much work is involved. As kind of a guiding principle, I hope that
packagers won't jump on the newest and latest distro kick when they
create packages, but will take a conservative approach and understand
that some of us would rather work on real stuff than spend all our
time
upgrading the infinite number of dependencies things rely on.
I guess that's an underhanded way of stating "would love to see
packaged
for debian-11". LOL
