running with XBPS_UPDATE_CHECK_VERBOSE=yes shows that they are ignored, probably due to being unstable releases:

On github it`s marked as release

https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-desktop/releases/tag/v1.27.3

I don`t find info that it unstable release.

[classabbyamp]

you'd have to ask @skmpz (#24719), but there's a fair amount of software that uses odd versions = development/beta releases

[skmpz]

it's stated in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATE_(desktop_environment)

Note that there are an odd number of versions between each official release. They are treated as versions under development, and are not announced as official releases.

Correct, odd version is unstable.
