At least here we will stick with the version packaged within Debian as long as it is technically feasible. For now I do not see problems in this regard. But since Romain was previously the maintainer of the Debian package (thank you for that!), I guess that he is well aware of the importance of available Liquidsoap packaging for distributions. The lack of up-to-date packages (e.g. within Debian) can obviously only be fixed by someone dedicating his/her time for the packaging.
