alpha 27 not available in debian backports?

[ralfixraflus]

Hello everyone

I am trying to install alpha 27.

I have debian bullseye and I have added the backports but the new 0ad alpha 27 is not showing up in the backports
 

# apt-cache madison 0ad | grep backports
0ad | 0.0.26-2~bpo11+1 | https://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports/main amd64 Packages


Any advice about this?

It won't be available as it requires a newer rust version not available there.

You may consider upgrading to Debian testing, which will become stable Debian 13 this summer.

Alternatively, you can use the Snap of 0ad or another sandbox solution. Version 0.27.0 is obtained with the following command.

sudo snap install 0ad --candidate
