dev-lang/julia-bin versions

https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-lang/julia-bin says:

> It seems that version 1.7.2 is available upstream, while the latest version in the Gentoo tree is 1.6.5.

But there is =dev-lang/julia-bin-1.7.1, also.

Bug?
Comment 1 Alec Warner (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2022-05-12 16:01:05 UTC
soko=# select * from outdated_packages where atom = 'dev-lang/julia-bin';
        atom        | gentoo_version | newest_version 
--------------------+----------------+----------------
 dev-lang/julia-bin | 1.6.5          | 1.7.2
(1 row)

Seems like a data bug; the gentoo_version should be 1.7.1.

Problem with the feed?
Comment 2 Alexander Kurakin 2022-09-10 09:21:52 UTC
Outdated Changelog example: https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/net-misc/rclone/changelog vs https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/log/net-misc/rclone (5 commits after f90926b committed on 2 May 2022).
Comment 3 Alexander Kurakin 2022-09-10 09:26:02 UTC
Also:
  * https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/added is outdated/broken (last is 5 June 2022),
  * https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/updated is empty,
  * https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/stable is totally strange,
  * https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/keyworded is empty.

We've redeployed it, more or less. Seems to be working now?
Comment 5 Alexander Kurakin 2022-11-20 22:39:17 UTC
No, at least first comment is actual.
Comment 6 Alexander Kurakin 2022-11-20 23:04:58 UTC
Moreover, one more case:

https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/app-laptop/tuxedo-keyboard :
Version 6.0.9-3.0.9 is available upstream. Please consider updating!
It seems that version 6.0.9-3.0.9 is available upstream, while the latest version in the Gentoo tree is 3.0.10.

$ cd gentoo && git ls-files app-laptop/tuxedo-keyboard
app-laptop/tuxedo-keyboard/Manifest
app-laptop/tuxedo-keyboard/metadata.xml
app-laptop/tuxedo-keyboard/tuxedo-keyboard-3.0.10-r1.ebuild

$ cd tuxedo-keyboard && git tag -l | sort -V | tail -n 2
v3.1.0
v3.1.1
Comment 7 John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-11-21 00:02:14 UTC
That's an invalid version in Repology. You can report it to be ignored for such calculations in Repology.

The message you're quoting also says, "You think this warning is false? Read more about it here." with a link to:

https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/b793f4da5a5b5e20a063ea431500a820

Which says, "This is because we currently take information about outdated package versions from repology.org, which are not always accurate."

We can't make Repology perfect from soko.

John, ok.

But at least the first comment is not about Repology.
Comment 9 Alexander Kurakin 2023-01-24 14:51:07 UTC
Ok, let's consider as fixed.

Will reopen on fresh examples.
Comment 10 Alexander Kurakin 2023-01-26 13:01:25 UTC
Interesting that `dev-lang/julia-bin` (`1.8.3`) shows "consider updating to 1.8.5" while `dev-lang/julia` (`1.8.3-r2`) doesn't. `metadata.xml` are the same. Not in `ignored-packages`.
Comment 11 Alexander Kurakin 2023-01-28 13:08:05 UTC
Alec, could you, please, check the situation of the previous comment via soko's database? Thanks!
