Is the Nigthly Ubuntu's PPA stoped?

Software

I have the Nitghly PPA added to Linux (sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kicad/kicad-dev-nightly) and want to test/contribute to the new features, but I am not receiving new 8.99 installations of KiCad software (only nightly symbols, 3d, footprints and so on).

Checking Index of /kicad/kicad-dev-nightly/ubuntu, URL listed internally on my system PPA, there are no new versions after 02/Feb/2024. So, is some problem in the release or my system configuration? (my current version is 8.0rc2).

Checking more, in Index of /kicad/kicad-dev-nightly/ubuntu/dists/jammy there is today’s version.

Is it possible that KiCad is considering 8.0rc2 > 8.99 Nighly on version checking?

Should be fine:

The only way was to remove apt purge kicad* and reinstall apt install kicad-nightly.

I have another (same OS) machine with this behavior. I will ensure that is the case before raising an issue.

Issue posted, I reproduced in another machine and caught some annotations mine that this also happened in 7.0rc to 7.99
