Comment (by lunar):
We actually do provide backports:
https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/dists/obfs4proxy/main/binary-
amd64/Packages
(They haven't been updated for the recent releases though.)
The rationale for using a custom suite is 1. it's too complicated to
backport all the Go dependencies; 2. we don't need to do it because the
resulting binary is statically linked.
So I believe this is more a problem of documentation and ownership on
updates. :)
