Welcome to the Ammonite Repl 2.5.2 (Scala 2.13.8 Java 11.0.19)
@ import $ivy.`org.foundweekends.giter8::giter8:0.16.2` 
import $ivy.$                                        

@ giter8.Maven.lookup((("scalafix_version", "maven(ch.epfl.scala, sbt-scalafix)")) :: Nil) 
res1: Either[String, giter8.G8.OrderedProperties] = Right(value = List(("scalafix_version", "0.10.4")))

expectation

-res1: Either[String, giter8.G8.OrderedProperties] = Right(value = List(("scalafix_version", "0.10.4")))
+res1: Either[String, giter8.G8.OrderedProperties] = Right(value = List(("scalafix_version", "0.11.0")))

since sbt-scalafix 0.11.0 is on Maven central:

• https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ch/epfl/scala/sbt-scalafix_2.12_1.0/0.11.0/sbt-scalafix-0.11.0.pom
• https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ch/epfl/scala/sbt-scalafix_2.12_1.0/maven-metadata.xml

notes

The problem seems to come from the REST API used to lookup the latest artifact, as https://search.maven.org/solrsearch/select?q=g:%22ch.epfl.scala%22+AND+a:%22sbt-scalafix%22&rows=10&wt=xml returns stale results as of June 8th (5 days after the missing artifact was published).

It sounds like Giter8 is working as intended but Maven Search is broken? Could you report this to Sonatype as well please?

The Maven search is no longer stale (for some unknown reason) as the latest artifact (0.11.1) now appears

Reopening this, as the problem is back... And the issue I opened on Sonatype (which didn't get traction anyway) is gone since they moved from Jira to Zendesk 😬
