Periodic check of Arch out of date packages. This considered are purely
my opinion of those that are sufficiently 'relevant'. Apologies to any
others.
The really good news is that there really aren't many !
Big congrats for the hard work keeping Arch awesome and up to date.
Note that, some are excluded when they are work in progress and/or
involve a significant amount of work (provided they are not "too" old,
which none are).
Arch is doing an amazing job keeping our core/key packages like
compiler tools, python, systemd, kernel and other vital packages very
up to date.
What remains are a few that are relevant enough (imho) to make the
list.
I am using 3 metrics of age:
- Num-B
The number of releases we are behind
Some packages have frequent updates some do not.
- Age
The number of days between the arch version and the latest
- New:
How recent was the latest released (days ago from today)
