Hi PMA,

The only method for Debian stable to get newer versions is via backports 
(http://backports.debian.org), but only versions available in testing 
are considered (currently 5.14). If this is new enough for you you can 
try writing a message to debian-backports (CCing the maintainers at 
csound@p.d.o) and ask if someone is interested in providing and 
maintaining a backport.

It helps if you can provide good reasons for the backport (e.g. what 
important features the newer version brings compared to the one in 
stable) or you are even prepared to do the backporting yourself.

Another option would be to try to install the version from testing (with 
all possible problems) or even use testing completely.

Kind regards,
Andrei
