Old build versions and dates - https://packages.artixlinux.org

I was searching for a package on https://packages.artixlinux.org/ today and noticed that the package versions and dates were old. I wanted to report that to the team. It may be an update job has stalled or I am doing something wrong when searching. Hopefully this helps. An example package from a search on linux-headers is below.

Repo    Name    Version    Package Description    Last Update (Stable)    Flagged On
system    linux-headers    5.16.16.artix1-1    Headers and scripts for building modules for the Linux kernel    2022-03-22 12:25:22

If all is well and this is just something on my side, apologies. But just in case.

Huh so someone finally found that (not that the url is impossible to guess). That site is out of date, not the actual packages in the repos. The site itself is still a work in progress.

It's actually linked on the homepage, under "Development". I heard someone mention the packages site on the subreddit so I too was curious how the public was aware of it!  :P

Thanks for the replies. Just to say there is no critisim of Artix or its valued contributors. My intention is honourable. So, to report what I found. As an Artix user I was unclear on whether that functionality should work at this point or be beta or whatever. It sounds as if this is a known and a work in progress. As Artix is supported by volunteers all I am is grateful. Thanks for clearing that up.
