The release announcement was on the mailing list: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pygame-mirror-on-google-groups/ 7B7e_US-klc
and Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/pygame/comments/5i3q8w/pygame_192_released/ With packages on PyPI: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pygame/1.9.2 With no suggestion of it being anything other than legitimate release. As somebody who would love to see python3-pygame migrate from experimental at some point I would love to see this stable release packaged.
