Be careful of applying the words "older" and "newer" to procps. There
are two forks of its codebase, and I don't think their version numbers
track each other.
It wouldn't be the first time that Red Hat and Debian have ended up for
various historical reasons on two different branches of a fork: man and
man-db come to mind, but at least there the packages have different
names.
