...I used for creating the deb package I know that it is dated August 2023 and I'd assume that it is the latest version from CTAN [1] however I didn't check that.
I now checked the file versions of the CTAN package and compared to the file versions in Debian and they are identical. So, we look at v1.726 in Debian. Yes, the statements \fileversion{1.723} and \fileversion{1.724} in the sty files are not very helpful, but this is now my fault.

Thank you for a quick answer. Note that the version of the package NewTX (most likely, 1.726 (cf. https://ctan.org/pkg/newtx), since all the mentioned bugs are repaired, whereas it was not the case for a few immediately preceeding versions) deviates from the version of the file newtx.sty (namely, still 1.724). My question concerns the version of the whole NewTX package and not the versions of the constituent files. (Since you wrote that the present bug report 1051497 is repaired, I highly believe you that you put 1.726 into texlive-fonts-extra, and what I'd like to know is how to check this in the future.)
