I'm lacking an explanation what might make Wesnoth so special compared
to other games that Debian (aka Release team and Security team) need to
support two different versions.  IMHO this is unneeded work and
over-engineering.  Having a metapackage which picks the recent stable
upstream version might be OK.  I do not think that we should actually
release two different versions in stable Debian.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
