I released 6.11 and it kicked off https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/actions/runs/28542324468/job/84625616643 but I'm confused.
The following tags were updated:
6.9-noble-r14
Last pushed 3 minutes by dataversebot
--
6.9-noble
Last pushed 3 minutes by dataversebot
--
6.10-noble-r7
Last pushed 5 minutes by dataversebot
--
6.10-noble
Last pushed 5 minutes by dataversebot
--
6.10.1-noble-r6
Last pushed 7 minutes by dataversebot
--
6.10.1-noble
Last pushed 7 minutes by dataversebot
But the "latest" tag wasn't updated? It shows this:
latest
--
Last pushed 25 days by dataversebot
And the 6.11 tag was updated two months ago?
6.11-noble
--
Last pushed about 2 months by dataversebot
Shouldn't the "latest" and "6.11-noble" tags have been updated when I released 6.11?
Here's a loooong screenshot, if it helps:

Should I manually run the job again to see if that fixes it? https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/actions/workflows/container_maintenance.yml

The context for this is that I'm updating the steps in the "making releases" doc to explain how to test the "latest" image after a release.
This is what I have so far:
Test Docker Images
Publishing the release should have trigged the "Container Images Scheduled Maintenance" GitHub Action. Allow it to finish and then go to https://hub.docker.com/u/gdcc and navigate to "gdcc/dataverse".
Click on "tags", make sure the "latest" tag has been updated, and then spin it up locally, after deleting old images:
docker rmi gdcc/dataverse:latest
docker rmi gdcc/configbaker:latest
cd docker/compose/demo
rm -rf data
docker compose up
Wait for the bootstrapping process to complete. Then, make sure the version returned by http://localhost:8080/api/info/version matches the version you are releasing.
But the version won't be updated until the images are pushed, obviously.

I went ahead and kicked off a run, on the develop branch: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/actions/runs/28546582863
Oh, good, that worked!
The "latest" tag was updated after I manually ran the job again:

I documented this workaround for the next time we do a release: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/12507/changes/18d9e3417fd7ac4ccbd55cfb662d8f108e02460b
@Oliver Bertuch added to #12507. If you don't mind approving it, I'll merge it!
@Oliver Bertuch at standup yesterday I asked the team to look at #12507 and approve it if they're ok with it, which they were (@Steven Winship took a look, thanks). I can go ahead and merge it. Or you can look first. What do you think? It's just docs explaining the workaround of rerunning the job if necessary (and some other release-related docs). This is the part to focus on: https://dataverse-guide--12507.org.readthedocs.build/en/12507/developers/making-releases.html#test-docker-images
@Oliver Bertuch I went ahead and merged #12507. I got tired of looking at it on the board. :smile: We can follow up with another PR if I got anything wrong! :sweat_smile:
