Incus stable from the Zabbly github is still 6.0.0?

So far I’ve only used Incus on Arch systems, where the packages are generally up to date. A couple of days ago I installed Incus on an Ubuntu 24.04 system using the instructions found here:

I installed the Stable version, which is supposed to be the latest version:

URIs: Index of /incus/stable/

Surprisingly, what got installed is 6.0.0:

pgoetz@the-professor ~$ dpkg -l | grep incus
ii  incus                                          6.0.0-1ubuntu0.3+esm2                   amd64        Powerful system container and virtual machine manager - daemon
ii  incus-agent                                    6.0.0-1ubuntu0.3+esm2                   amd64        Incus guest agent
ii  incus-client                                   6.0.0-1ubuntu0.3+esm2                   amd64        Powerful system container and virtual machine manager - client

On my Arch systems, Incus is at version 6.16. Does anyone know what’s up with this? Having watched a number of the new post 6.0 release videos, I’m pretty sure there are features I want which are missing from 6.0.

That’s Canonical’s ESM repo messing with package priority and preventing you from installing the package from the Zabbly repository.
