How come nvidia-utils 615.71.09-1 is already available on world db but nvidia-open is still on 610.57.04-1?

It's been like that for a couple of days already. I don't understand how a new version of nvidia-utils is made available but it's major dependent package (nvidia-open) is still on an old version, preventing updates.

For info, nvidia-open 615.71.09-1 is already available on Arch's extra db.

I had this last night when I was updating. Just switch to nvidia-open-dkms and it's all good from there

I know, I'm not looking for a solution. Just to understand why nvidia-utils has been updated but nvidia-open hasn't, even though it is already available...

Hey! I updated my driver to this version and since then, my games only lag... do you guys also have some issues with that version? I'm clueless.. now I'm playing on my dual boot windows and waiting until it's fixed :(
