        just a silly turn of phrase meaning: you should know that this is what you signed up for

        I’d love to hear what your solution would be? They freeze everything two months out to allow for thorough testing and unless your answer to the problem is switching to a rolling release cycle (which is exactly the opposite of what its supposed to be), then I don’t think there’s anything to be done

        This sort of distro is and always has prioritised stability over having the latest of everything and that’s a good thing. I use CachyOS on my desktop but it’s the absolute last thing I’d put on a server, let alone a production one.

        Just use Docker if you need something newer

          I’m very familiar with their freezing schedule. The impression I’d gotten from this thread was that the package was much more out of date.

            It was about 4 months out of date at code freeze from my understanding and 6 months out of date on release which is honestly better than I’d expect normally for packages in official repos
