>From a technical perspective there is no reason to stay on the git snapshot
version. Salsa repo https://salsa.debian.org/emacsen-team/flycheck is already
updated to latest flycheck release 32.  But I did not manage to find a sponsor
to upload it. That's one part of the problem. Another part of it: people
ignore the salsa repo and prefer to stick to git snapshot (for whatever
reason), see recent versions 32~git.20200527.9c435db3-3 and
32~git.20200527.9c435db3-4. Hopefully you will have more luck to sort the
things out.

Thanks and best regards,
Denis
