Although it might seem like a tale from the past by now, the Debian project is
still occasionally concerned with getting a release out. Therefore, the
Debian package maintainers are currently busy with stabilizing the 7.4.6
packages for the upcoming release.
Additionally, the packaging will be completely redone for the 8.0 packages, so
it may take some time still before you see something usable.
