Winget installing outdated packages

[github-account1111]

Brief description of your issue

Winget installs old versions of some packages.
It also fails to show the new versions when running winget upgrade.

For example, Signal 5.9.0 has been available for 18 days now:
https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/tree/master/manifests/o/OpenWhisperSystems/Signal
yet winget keeps insisting that 5.8.0 is the latest version.

This is happening on a clean Windows 10 install and has happened on two different laptops now.

Steps to reproduce

Run winget install --id 'OpenWhisperSystems.Signal' --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements.

Expected behavior

Signal 5.9.0 is installed.

Actual behavior

Signal 5.8.0 is installed.
No upgrades are shown when running winget upgrade

Environment

Windows Package Manager (Preview) v1.4.2161-preview
Windows: Windows.Desktop v10.0.19044.2006
System Architecture: X64
Package: Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller v1.19.2161.0

The latest version is 5.60.0 which isn't in the repository so it's not currently offered.

Just an FYI: GitHub Web's algorithm works a bit weirdly so the bottom one won't always be the latest version of a particular package.

I'm sorry you're right I misread the page I linked above (I literally took 5.58.0 for 5.8.0, maybe I'm dyslexic lol).
The latest version is indeed 5.60.
It just hasn't been added to the manifests.
