Ubuntu repo out of date?

Hi. I followed the instructions on the wiki for adding the firmware repo (Ubuntu Hardy 64-bit on Inspiron 1420). But it appears that the repo is out of date:

# apt-cache policy system-bios-ven-0x1028-dev-0x01f3 
system-bios-ven-0x1028-dev-0x01f3:
  Installed: 0.a03-1
  Candidate: 0.a03-1
  Version table:
 *** 0.a03-1 0
        500 http://linux.dell.com cross-distro/dell-firmware Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

So it shows version a03 is in the repo. But version a07 is available elsewhere on the site: http://linux.dell.com/repo/software/bios-hdrs/system_bios_ven_0x1028_dev_0x01f3_version_a07/

Or am I missing something?
