[Slackbuilds-users] older versions listed for upgrade

[fsLeg]

The answer to this is simple: sbocheck doesn't actually check version 
numbers, it only reports a potential update if the pulled version is 
different. This was answered years ago in sbotools' old repo:

https://github.com/pink-mist/sbotools/issues/42#issuecomment-219218376

If you require newer versions than SBo provides and still use automated 
tools, you can set up local overrides as per comment I just mentioned. I 
also use local overrides to have my own scripts for things that aren't 
on SBo.

You are supposed to inspect sbocheck's output before running sboupgrade 
anyway, and even if you do `sboupgrade --all` you still have to choose 
whether to upgrade each package individually, so just ignore the message 
if you know it's a false positive.
