I ran a modified version of the script that just spits out links whenever more than one entry on IA that matches the search string is found: https://pastebin.com/v6Bq2a2p |

The script selects the first on the list, which is not guaranteed to be the newest dump. For example, for the Archlinux page (line 42-45 in the pastebin), the script will select the first of the two IA dumps, which is from 2012, instead of the second, which has a dump as new as 2018. |

Zerote: it doesn't help that uploader.py doesn't manage to update the "lastupdateddate" field |

but you could just add "&sort=-publicdate" to the search URL to get the most recent item and that would increase the chances to get the most recent dump |

(though we update older items with newer dumps so that's not certain either) |

Yeah, it might be a good idea to search through all the results to find the one containing the newest dump |

Zerote: with screenscraping that's slightly tedious but I think you can get a list of files from the internetarchive library |
