Description Alexander Kurakin 2023-04-16 16:37:42 UTC
https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sys-kernel/git-sources :

> It seems that version 6.2.11 is available upstream, while the latest version in the Gentoo tree is 6.3_rc5.

Both statements are true. But, should the package be considered as outdated (6.3_rc5 > 6.2.11)?

This looks like a bug with repology markings for this package. When you go to [1], and search for Gentoo, you will see that all the versions of sys-kernel/git-sources are marked as outdated. Repology upstream are nice and react quickly when contacted.

The case is at latest version *number*.

I think, soko says "latest version" in time it takes "latest stable version" from Repology instead.
Comment 3 Alexander Kurakin 2023-05-09 08:38:57 UTC
Yes, with new 6.4_rc1 there is no sign like "6.3.1 is available upstream".

You were right, Arthur.
