What types of updates are you expecting? Security updates only, or...?

The debian-security-announce mailing list shows the last two updates as
being firefox-esr on the 28th and xen on the 2nd. If you don't happen to
have xen installed, you wouldn't have seen that one as an available
update.

I see gaps of as much as a week between the d-s-a notification mails
just since late August. A gap of five days doesn't seem terribly unusual
to me.

I suspect that there just haven't been that many packages getting
security-related or otherwise stable-update-eligible updates in this
time-frame.
