Dear Debian Release Team,

In this email, I would like to discuss the situation with updates of the telegram-desktop package in stable releases. Telegram recently updated
their API introducing backward incompatible changes. Because of that a
version of the package currently in bullseye cases to work. Details see
in Bug#1001016.

Would it be acceptable to update Telegram Desktop in Debian 11 from
version 2.6.1 to the next upstream release 3.1.1 that is already in
testing?

A more general question arises. What will be updating policy in similar
cases?

please don't do this. As in: please use a bug to have this discussion.

running 'reportbug release.debian.org' and then choosing 'bullseye proposed updates requests' will make sure the right meta data is set for the bug, so
the stable release team will this request when they deal with these kinds of request.

debian-release@lists.debian.org has too much traffic to deal with such kind
of requests without properly filed bugs.

HTH and thank you for maintaining telegram-desktop!

"I know what you're thinking" used to be an idiom but now it's a business model.
