I am running Debian Bullseye and I want to install ffmpeg 4.4.1, which looks to be available in sid :
So I have added the backports repo :

# apt-cache policy
Package files:
...
500 http://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/debian bullseye/main amd64 Packages
release v=11.2,o=Debian,a=stable,n=bullseye,l=Debian,c=main,b=amd64
origin mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu
100 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports/main amd64 Packages
release o=Debian Backports,a=bullseye-backports,n=bullseye-backports,l=Debian Backports,c=main,b=amd64
origin deb.debian.org
...
# apt-get install -t bullseye-backports ffmpeg

ffmpeg is already the newest version (7:4.3.3-0+deb11u1).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 33 not upgraded.
apt-cache show ffmpeg
only shows one entry, which is for ffmpeg 4.3 in the main stable repository. Any advice?
