Dear Debian XMPP Maintainers,

First, thanks for all your work since several years.

I contact you today because I have discovered a big problem: Psi+ has not been updated in Debian since a very long time.

I see here: https://xmpp-team.pages.debian.net/blog/2025/05/xmpp-debian-13-trixie-news.html
"Psi+, a QT based XMPP client (basic version) has been upgraded from 1.4.554 to 1.4.1456"

First: Psi+ is "a cross-platform XMPP client designed for experienced users", README.md:
- https://github.com/psi-plus/psi-plus-snapshots

Second 1.4.1456 is from 2020-07-06 (5 years, 2 months soon):
- https://github.com/psi-plus/psi-plus-snapshots/commit/369effe75c9833d243c96d1cbd19a59b7a50f145

More older than Psi 1.5 (2020-09-06), which is already old:
- https://github.com/psi-im/psi/releases

Debian Tracker (Descriptions need to be updated with official informations):
- Qt-based XMPP client (basic version): https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/psi-plus (*)
- Qt-based XMPP client: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/psi

(*) At the same time, can you replace the old dead website homepage? (maybe several places)
-> https://psi-im.org/

We are in 2025, the latest is Psi+ 1.5.2112 (2025-08-23) at this time.
Users need to have OMEMO support (Security and Privacy).

Can you update it?
There are several improvements, OMEMO included.

Good Psi+ source repositories are here:
- https://github.com/psi-plus/psi-plus-snapshots
- https://github.com/psi-plus/psi-plus-l10n

Of course not merged source code is here:
- https://github.com/psi-im/

This problem is not recent:
- https://github.com/psi-im/psi/issues/831
- https://github.com/psi-im/psi/issues/860

IMPORTANT: It is possible to update Psi version and to sync with official GitHub sources:
- https://github.com/psi-im

A lot of users wait Psi+ and Psi updates.
Debian and OS based on Debian users.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Neustradamus
