 - Yesterday, I got a warning about an unmaintained package. But, today, I don't. Why is that?
 
-  Possibly, an intermediate dependency was updated. Suppose package X depends on Y, which depends on Z. And suppose Z is considered unmaintained. Then Z will generated warnings for both X and Y. If Y is updated to no longer depend upon Z, and X uses the new version of Y, then X will no longer receive warnings about Z.
