You can read about the packaging plans on this very list at [1] and [2] ff..

This depends on the package source you are using. If you use Debian unstable or
testing you always will be upgraded to the most actual version. If you are
using the source lists from the backports mirror (aka debian.tryton.org) [3] you
are supposed to do this switch yourself by adapting to the desired Debian
release and Tryton series.

Cheers,
Mathias
