You can see the status of pspp in debian here:

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/pspp

Which version of pspp is in which debian release is here:

https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=pspp

Same for ubuntu: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pspp

In debian the package version is frozen once a release of the distribution is made. If you see version 1.4.1, then you are probably on debian bullseye which is "oldstable".  The current stable release is "bookworm" which was released in October 2023. Bookworm comes with pspp 1.6.2-2.

pspp-2.0.0-3 is at the moment in "unstable" and will automagically betransferred to "testing" which is the future "stable" release "trixie". Probably 2025 the collection of packages will be frozen.

If you run bullseye (oldstable) oder bookworm (stable) and want to use a later version of pspp, then you can try "flatpak" to install a later version of pspp. You can also try to build from source. There may be a problem if your current linux distribution comes with a library with a lower version than the library version that is required by pspp.

The newest binaries will only be in Debian "unstable" until the next Debian release.  Debian only releases every 2 years, if I recall correctly.
