It is upstream's job to monitor CTAN and keep the distribution up-to-date, and to check that things do work together. We, the Debian teTeX maintainers, have a hard enough job in maintaining teTeX as it is, and cannot do this additional job. You know, it's not just acronym.sty which is outdated, it is essentially the complete package. teTeX-3.0 is out (the architecture-all packages are in experimental, but unusable with the architecture-any stuff which is stuck in NEW), but won't make it into sarge (too much changes, too much packages build-depending on us). For etch, we are planning to support an additional TEXMF tree where packages can place newer versions of files that exist in teTeX; but for now you can only use TEXMFLOCAL or HOMETEXMF.
