Yes, that's what backporting is.
Porting a patch back to an older version.
Since Ubuntu and Debian preserve stability by not doing any feature upgrades.
Which is done apperantly differently in RHEL land, podman gets updated to the latest version regularly, I couldn't find a clear answer to RHEL's update policy and how it works.
Ubuntu also has exceptions for packages like Firefox, which need to get updated often, and is something Debian struggles with regularly.
However Ubuntu is snapping up everything lately, I was surprised the `pro` utility was a normal package instead of a snap.
