magicandsave Isn't KeePassXC-Browser 3rd party extension for browsers? In that case we can't do much to silent the update notifications. I don't know if seeing update notification in browser extension is a valid reason for update in stable releases. It's something for bug squad to decide. A valid reason for updating it would be to disable the check for newer releases. Mageia supplied packages should not be checking non-mageia sites for updates, by default. Assigning to the registered maintainer. Source RPM:

keepassxc-2.6.4-1.mga8 KeePassXC-Browser for Firefox isn't our pkg. It's an extension from https://addons.mozilla.org/ to talk with keepassxc. Similar extension is available also for other browsers like Chrome. Update check in keepassxc itself is disabled. Thanks for the clarification. As it's not something under Mageia's control, closing as invalid. Status:

It's something for bug squad to decide. The add-on is calling: You are using an old version of KeePassXC. KeePassXC is Mageia-package, In MCC package is found under release: Currently installed version: 2.6.4-1.mga8 So my interpretation is, that this package needs update (?).

INVALID =>
(none) The addon is separate from the package. The package keepassxc includes /usr/bin/keepassxc /usr/bin/keepassxc-cli /usr/bin/keepassxc-proxy It does not include integration into firefox. That integration is done by a firefox addon that is installed from a third party source, not from Mageia. Exactly, the package keepassxc, has new version: keepassxc-2.6.6-1, according to information at https://keepassxc.org/download/#linux For me that means updating current version keepassxc 2.6.4-1.mga8 to 2.6.6-1, right? For stable release, our policy is to stick with the version present at release date.
We patch security holes by applying specific upstream fixes on the fixed version.
We upgrade to newer version in Cauldron OR in the stable release only if there is an API breakage or if the software uses mandatory newer functions like syncing, online servers,...
In the case of keepassxc between 2.6.4 and 2.6.6 there are only:
