I have a "theory" :)
The announcement is for #pkgsrc source code. It takes about 2 or 3 weeks for things to replicate and binaries to be built.
Hmm... You do know pkgsrc is "download source and compile", right?
@ParadeGrotesque
Yes. but it also has a binary component with pkgin
Yes, but pkgin is supposed to be synchronized (give or take a couple of days) with the source release.
At least, that's my understanding...
