Sorry to intervene -
Yes - you are more than welcome to test the daily builds and feedback ! In general they always stay current with the gitmaster though - aka they don’t follow the stable or beta releases but rather daily Suricata git master pkg builds.

I will be updating our beta/rc repo separately soon as well.

Thank you
