Ah, ok. I guess that changed recently. Is it safe to assume latest is stable @shetzel ?

latest == stable
latest-rc == stable-rc

Afaik, it's been this way since we starting doing release candidates.

@shetzel -- something is not right -- the docs for downloading the tarballs use the "stable" and "stable-rc"

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.sfdx_setup.meta/sfdx_setup/sfdx_setup_install_cli_rc.htm

However, https://developer.salesforce.com/media/salesforce-cli/sfdx/channels/stable-rc/sfdx-linux-x64.tar.xz currently points to CLI 7.140.x (several weeks old) so there's likely something not updating the tarball URLs

@daveespo - yeah, something is off there. 1478 is definitely a bug.

I wasn't aware of this, but it seems that there used to be a stable tag for sfdx-cli npm. That was a mistake long ago and pointed to a very old version (it wasn't being updated) and has been removed. @Kevmo92 - apologies for my inaccurate response.
