Debian 9 (stretch) is a frozen release and packages are not updated there, only major security issues get applied. https://wiki.debian.org/LTS > The newest version available is about 0.1 versions old, as the newest release of aseprite available on GitHub is 1.2.25(see https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/releases). asesprite is now under a proprietary license, so cannot be re-added to Debian main after the removal mentioned by Andreas. If you or anyone else wants to use or package it, I would suggest using LibreSprite instead, or another program like GrafX2, which is already available in Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/864990 https://dev.aseprite.org/2016/09/01/new-source-code-license/ https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/commit/5ecc356a41c8e29977f8608d8826489d24f5fa6c https://libresprite.github.io/#history https://libresprite.github.io/ http://grafx2.chez.com/ -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
