The latest "tested" version provides kernel 4.19.10, ddrescue 1.23 and

Thanks Christian, sounds like it's exactly what I need! There are all
sorts of .iso downloads at the links you provided. Most of them seem to
be for different versions of GUI desktops, but it looks like the file I
want (compact, stable, no GUI frontend, 64-bit system, with "rescue"
utilities including ddrescue 1.23) is:
http://nightly.altlinux.org/sisyphus/tested/regular-rescue-latest-x86_64.iso
(Though it may not hurt to have another CD with
"regular-rescue-latest-i586.iso" as well in case I need to work on a
32-bit system.)
