[stable] security update delay for firefox-esr

Hello,
I noticed on the debian security advisory page this resolved issue:

[03 Jun 2020] DSA-4695 firefox-esr - security update 

But the upgrade is not taken into account on June, 6th.

Is it normal ?

Re: [stable] security update delay for firefox-esr

What result does this give you?:

apt policy firefox-esr

Here's mine:

$ apt policy firefox-esr
firefox-esr:
  Installed: 68.9.0esr-1~deb9u1
  Candidate: 68.9.0esr-1~deb9u1
  Version table:
 *** 68.9.0esr-1~deb9u1 500
        500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-security/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     68.4.1esr-1~deb9u1 500
        500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii/main i386 Packages
     60.6.3esr-1~deb9u1 500
        500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-updates/main i386 Packages

That's on Devuan ASCII.

And here's a little more info:

$ ls -l /var/cache/apt/archives |grep firefox
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 51238698 May  6 00:02 firefox-esr_68.8.0esr-1~deb9u1_i386.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 51256908 Jun  2 23:44 firefox-esr_68.9.0esr-1~deb9u1_i386.deb

Re: [stable] security update delay for firefox-esr

Finally, I got the upgrade today on stable.
# apt policy firefox-esr

firefox-esr:
  Installed: 68.9.0esr-1~deb10u1
  Candidate: 68.9.0esr-1~deb10u1
  Version table:
 *** 68.9.0esr-1~deb10u1 500
        500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged stable-security/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged stable-security/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     68.7.0esr-1~deb10u1 500
        500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged stable/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged stable/main amd64 Packages

Maybe, this delay is normal.

I can tell you about myself. I have no delays (in updates).
