[SOLVED] librsvg updated

I'm not sure what the process is for updating packages in the repositories. I found a problem with librsvg after an update and reported it to the developer. The issue is fixed in v2.42.1. The Arch 64 bit repository has the updated version, but the 32 bit repo still has 2.42.0

So, my questions are:

1. Is it an automatic process for updating such things, or does it take something like this to let the powers that be know there is a new version?
2. If it's automatic, how much lag is there between the 64 and 32 bit versions?

Thanks

Hi,
it's automatic. But we build the stable packages (core/extra/community) and they need to flow through our staging and testing before you'll see them in core/extra/community. This usually takes a few days, but sometimes also longer.
As for librsvg: it's currently in our testing repositories, so you can use it from there, or wait until it gets into [extra].
