Arch Linux keeps falling behind in package updates, basic packages like gdb and LLVM are newer in Fedora then in Arch, and Bash is newer in DEBIAN then in Arch. Why have package updates fallen so far behind?

    It does seem a bit slower than it used to, but it also seems more stable than it used to and I don’t think that’s a coincidence. These days I also see the occasional package pulled when it introduces issues which is not something I recall happening in earlier years. I think it’s great, personally.
