Yes, we also shouldn't be recommending those non-free distros here in the forums. > servers and this is why FSF doesn't endorse Debian.

I don't know for sure, perhaps ask the people in trisquel-devel mailing list? Currently, Trisquel serves the purpose of being user-friendly and based on stable release. Unmodified packages like SuperTuxKart come from upstream (so for those cases, lack of updates is due to upstream not providing, that is: Ubuntu). You can --- instead of fiddling with adding PPA repositories and such like --- download the latest version of SuperTuxKart through the GNU Guix package manager (which also must be installed by you on your copy of Trisquel). To install it please follow all the instructions (and all links) from the GNU Guix installation documentation first[1] after downloading it of course (see the links bellow "GNU Guix 0.14.0 Binary" in [2]). Using GNU Guix package manager with its default repositories has the advantage that the community around it also follows the GNU FSDG --- this is why their distro, GuixSD, was also accepted as free/libre ---, so you will have less risk of installing non-free software. Technical addendum: Also, that package manager is thought out in a way that if something undesirable to you happens after a package upgrade, then you can tell GNU Guix to literally roll-back to a point before that action. You can even tell GNU Guix to update its list of recipes from previous versions of their official repository so that you can upgrade packages to working versions afterwards.
