Hi!

The GnuPG-Version of okular comes with Gpg4win
and is able to sign PDFs.

Which version is recommended to have that on Debian Trixie?

What I've found out:

https://packages.debian.org/trixie/okular as 4:25.04.2-1
and https://gpg4win.org/change-history.html indicates that
  Okular: 23.11.70 was in Gpg4win 4.3.0 from 2024-01-25
  and ready for "everyday's use"

From that Trixie's version should be fine, correct?

Otherwise, if not:
what would be the minium okular upstream version and patches?
Is there a repository for okular on Trixie and other GNU/Linux
distributions?

There is https://gnupg.com/gnupg-desktop.html#okular
which states that some things are turned off for security reasons.
If someone wants that version it can be acquired with GnuPG Desktop
with an appimage, see https://gnupg.com/vsd/install.html.

It is so cool to be able to sign PDFs with GnuPG and Okular
and more people should be able to know about this and make it work.

Suggestions for improvement: 
* Have the okular version always listed in gpg4win.org/change-history.html
* List the changes of the different versions somewhere (if there are any).
* Have an own page or wiki page about this?

Best,
Bernhard
