Docker Hub page:
https://hub.docker.com/r/boinc/client/#supported-architectures-and-tags

The Docker image for the ARM64v8 architecture is out of date by 3 years. That image provides Ubuntu 19.04 and BOINC client v.7.14.2.

Building a new image using the Dockerfile (from github) without modification pulls Ubuntu 22.10 and BOINC client v.7.20.2 and seems to run without issues.

Wondering if there's a reason this image has been left in its un-updated state. Are there bugs with later versions on ARM?

Most likely reason is that no one is maintaining that resource.
