However you're on Debian stable and the latest version of the package that came out 24 years ago is still too new.
At least does stable support Flatpaks now? Got an old T60 I might get out of retirement, because fuck buying a computer these days
What do you mean by "support"? Flatpak is in the official repository and has been for a while.
You may also consider the backports repository for common software such as office and maybe your DE/tools.
Otherwise, I've used a T60 with Libreboot myself for years and it still worked fine for general purpose stuff, but then the CCFL display lighting went dead. It's not TFT, unfortunately, so they don't last as long.
As in "does have a somewhat modern flatpak package version that won't cause issues with stuff off flathub"
I'll dig it up and try it, thanks!
