Apple seems to have stopped developing CUPS since Michael Sweet has left
Apple in the end of 2019.
After some time I have created together with Michael Sweet a fork of the
CUPS upstream repository on OpenPrinting:
https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups
Michael Sweet is actively applying pull requests from the former Apple
repository, fixing bugs, and applying distro patches in this new upstream.
This is now the upstream of CUPS for many distributions, especially
Debian and Ubuntu. The first release, 2.3.3op1 is the current release of
Debian unstable now.
The Debian packaging GIT repository should have stayed the same as before.

Ok, thanks.
I daily mirror the cups git repository, but for quite some time no
changes appeard, however, some kind of message which I could not
figure out:
Your configuration specifies to merge with the ref 'refs/heads/debian/master'
from the remote, but no such ref was fetched.
Today, I got an updated of cups (in stable) which, amongst others,
said:
* Refresh manpage translation pofiles for 2.3.3op1
Did the CUPS git repository change? Where can I find the current
(unstable) place to maitain the man page translation, whenever the
need arises (the upstream text change)?
Thanks for the correct pointers
