When do mingw updates in the repo trickle down?

    We have an MSYS2 installation that uses nghttp2 and OpenSSL. Over a week ago the pkgbuilds for nghttp2 was updated to 1.10.0 in the MINGW-packages repo and five days ago OpenSSL was updated to 1.0.2h. However when I force update via 'pacman -Syyuu' I do not see these updated packages. I'm wondering when they will appear, and what type of delay is typical. Thanks

    Well packages not created and uploaded automatially. All packages in repository are builded and signed by me. I'm build/upload packages when have time for it. So sometimes it take some weeks before new packages will be in repo.

    I understand, thanks for your effort on this project. Is there an automated way that we can build the updated packages as required? For example, is there a way for pacman to detect that the new pkgbuild is in the repo and then run that build script and then install it? I know I can do that manually for a package but I don't know a good way to manage that for all packages.
