Missing older patch releases

[maspwr]

Do old patch releases get removed from the apt repositories when new releases are pushed out? It looks like only 4.2.4 is available through https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x, whereas a few weeks ago 4.2.1 was available. I was hoping to pin installation scripts to install a specific version.

I am having this same problem. I had 4.2.4 specified in a deployment script, which is now breaking because only 4.2.6 exists.

Facing the issue as well due to a blind upgrade via curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -

Locked me into 4.2.6 when we were previously dependent on 4.2.4 (no longer found).

I've hit the same problem. Interestingly, the packages are still there, but they are missing from the Packages file.

And it's interesting that Docker had exactly the same issue last year.

You can find an explanation as to why this is happening, along with some helpful work arounds, there.
