Hello @ZinggJM, I'm not sure if I understand. Which exactly link is outdated? Thanks for answer

[ZinggJM]

Hello @VojtechBartoska. The download link that was earlier published in https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/wiki/Unofficial-list-of-3rd-party-boards-support-urls for Arduino IDE preferences still points to a download of version 1.0.6.
Users that have this link in preferences will never notice that it is outdated.
If this outdated link would point to something invalid, they might notice.
I don't have the outdated link at hand, but I might find it on some older notebook, if needed.
Maybe this: https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json

has: "url": "https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/releases/download/1.0.6/esp32-1.0.6.zip",
