Because that's the way it is done. There is no need to do the same
thing twice (packaging work). We regularly sync/merge packages from
Debian, so in this way we minimize the diff between our and Debian's
version. It is possible afterwards to update the package to 1.1.4,
until Feature freeze (which is on February 19th, if I remember
correctly). So, the main point is that we tend not to differ a lot, if
we really don't need to. I hope this answer clarifies the situation a
bit. Here are some possibly useful links:
