No, Archlinux was repeatedly behind with package updates. This even went as far as lagging behind Ubuntu in at least one instance, causing inconvenience and frustration for users which then either had to use other more up-to-date sources for dependencies or package the newer version of dependencies under a different installroot themselves.

This problem is caused by a staff shortage or the average necessary maintanance effort for repo packages. At least one of those 2 causes has to be solved.
