Ubuntu LTS is taken from a snapshot of testing. For Trisquel 6/Ubuntu 12.04, this snapshot was taken at a time (probably in late 2011) when squeeze was stable and wheezy was in testing, so it has about the same package versions as Debian 7.0 wheezy. And since the snapshot of testing is taken before the feature freeze, the packages in Ubuntu 12.04 are actually a bit older than those in Debian 7.0. Similarly, the packages in Trisquel 7.0 are a bit older than those in Debian 8.0 jessie (for example GCC 4.8 vs 4.9).
