We are packaging the different major version branches of RT3
separately to ease future upgrade routes for users. In sid/unstable
there is request-tracker3.2 as well as request-tracker3. 

With the imminent release of RT3.4 due we have decided not to put
request-tracker3.2 into sarge/testing but rather just wait for 3.4 and
then push request-tracker3.4 into sarge.

It is possible to take the request-tracker3.2 and rt3.2-clients
packages from unstable and install them onto a sarge/testing machine
without using any backported packages if there are features in RT3.2
you need right now.

Once 3.4 is in sarge/testing I will be requesting the removal of
request-tracker3.2 from sid/unstable. There will be an upgrade path
from 3.0 through to 3.4. We just do not have the manpower to follow
every major release branch in what is a fairly fast moving project.

We have to trade-off stability against features and we have decided
that right now the RT3.0 branch is the most stable and provides
everything that most users need from a request tracking system.
