stable (1.22.19) and latest (1.22.22) are different

[MikeMcC399]

Issue

The stable version 1.22.19 and the latest version 1.22.22 of Yarn V1 Classic are different.

• https://classic.yarnpkg.com/latest-version shows 1.22.19 to be the stable version
• https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install notes
  Classic Stable: v1.22.19

whereas the published package shows latest: '1.22.22'

$ yarn info yarn dist-tags
yarn info v1.22.22
{
  latest: '1.22.22',
  rc: '1.22.0',
  berry: '2.4.3',
  legacy: '1.21.1'
}

Question

Will the stable version of Yarn v1 ever be elevated to 1.22.22 or is it expected to stay at 1.22.19?

• Changelog missing for versions after 1.22.11 #8725

Following the install instructions for Debian / Ubuntu on https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install#debian-stable consequently leads to the installation of Yarn v1 1.22.19 (stable), not 1.22.22 (latest)

Site has been updated.

@MikeMcC399 I'm hitting an error when trying to update the Debian repo:

Signing file 'Release' with gpg, please enter your passphrase when prompted:
gpg: skipped "23E7166788B63E1E!": Unusable secret key
gpg: signing failed: Unusable secret key
ERROR: unable to publish: unable to detached sign file: exit status 2

which is weird because I can use the key for other things.

I'll push to the repo once I figure this out.

@MikeMcC399 Debian repo has been updated: https://github.com/yarnpkg/releases/blame/gh-pages/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-all/Packages#L7. RPM repo is up-to-date now too.
