I still see a difference here:
http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=rudy%40debian.org
and here:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/t/torcs-data.html
The latest one of course is for the source torcs-data package
which is not available anymore. That's what was confusing.

Basically, the DEP-5 involved primarily more detailed licensing terms
for the game's artwork. Which was not included in the past. Few
things remain to clean-up for some data files, I might need to
contact designers/authors for that.
Second, with the new packaging layout I also created an VCs repo
under the pkg-games umbrella, so that we are able to maintain
and support on stable releases.
Finally, nor critical or functional change have been made to the
game. However upstream included few patches in a beta release
that could be useful for this release. It wasn't our case but
Ubuntu's, for some reason. We've already pushed upstream few
patches in the past. Changes in -6 can be interpreted as polishing
bits for shipping. If those are not elegible let's move and release!

Well, you've already found the answer.
Thanks again.
