Poor mirror would cause -current downgrade
by igadoter from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5BNP4)
I witnessed this yesterday. I pick mirror closest to my location from slackpkg mirror list. After update when I tried to upgrade system slackpkg list packages to upgrade showed kernel version older than already installed. After switching to another mirror things went back to normal. The outdated mirror was not synced at least for three, four days.
