The tlcritical mirror is newer than Utah as of 12 July, 1313 PDT: tlcritical is rebuilt every night, so it will (almost) always be never, even if the real content is the same. I downloaded https://ftp.math.utah.edu/pub/tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet/update-tlmgr-latest.sh and then ran, to unpack the archive without running anything: sh update-tlmgr-latest.sh --noexec --target utahlatest and did the same for the update-tlmgr-latest.sh in tlcritical, and then diff -ru0 critlatest utahlatest and the only difference is the creation date: --- critlatest/runme.sh 2026-07-12 02:23:22.000000000 +0200 +++ utahlatest/runme.sh 2026-07-11 23:53:37.000000000 +0200 @@ -5 +5 @@ -# Created by tl-makeself-from-tlnet at Sun Jul 12 02:23:22 CEST 2026. +# Created by tl-makeself-from-tlnet at Sat Jul 11 23:53:37 CEST 2026. @@ -7 +7 @@ -creation_date="Sun Jul 12 02:23:22 CEST 2026" +creation_date="Sat Jul 11 23:53:37 CEST 2026" So I think most everything should be up to date now. https://ctan.org/mirrors/mirmon shows almost all mirrors <24 hours, and stale mirrors should never get chosen anyway. So if the problem still doesn't get fixed by the reinstall from tlnet, only tlcritical ... I'm baffled. Unless TLU does something different, but that seems highly improbable. --thanks, karl.
