2 new commits since last upload, is it time to release? normal
vcswatch reports that this package seems to have new commits in its VCS but has not yet updated debian/changelog. You should consider updating the Debian changelog and uploading this new version into the archive.

Here are the relevant commit logs:
commit 658dcc3b0bddfe0a2a4e957d0437dbf00f300fe5
Author: Seb Hinderer <sebastien.hinderer@ens-lyon.org>
Date:   Fri Nov 13 23:23:16 2026 +0100

    Give /run/speech-dispatcher to the speech-dispatcher group
    
    The directory holding the socket of the system-wide server belonged
    to the audio group, so clients of that server had to be in audio. It
    now belongs to the speech-dispatcher group, created by the sysusers
    file. debian/NEWS tells administrators who enabled the system-wide
    service to move its users to that group.
    
    Before 6.9.1+repack-4, BRLTTY drops the speech-dispatcher group with
    its privileges and can no longer reach the server: speech-dispatcher
    now breaks older versions of brltty-speechd, which depends on the
    brltty of its own version.

commit 90768e3ad08c4e6dc694e042542421db2a18e3d8
Author: Seb Hinderer <sebastien.hinderer@ens-lyon.org>

    Drop the native build with the cross profile from Salsa CI
    
    Since sbuild 0.88.1, the cross profile makes sbuild forbid the host
    architecture in apt's configuration. In a native build, the host
    architecture is the chroot's own, so the test-build-profiles job
    fails at apt-get update. The test-crossbuild-arm64 job already builds
    with the cross profile, and so checks the <!cross> build dependency.
