The current Ubuntu development version (at the moment Xenial) will
receive newer versions of packages up until release as they are either
packaged directly in Ubuntu or synced from Debian.

I see that Debian has packaged a newer version of ltsp, 5.5.5-1 [1], so
I guess it might help getting that into Ubuntu. The latest version in
Ubuntu carry some Ubuntu-specific changes though (you can tell since
ubuntu is part of the version number 5.5.4-4ubuntu2). Unless these
changes have been included in the Debian package, the newer package will
need to be manually merged from Debian to Ubuntu [2].
