Because the package currently gets its source from dist.libuv.org, the
‘generic-html’ updater is picked; it browses
<https://dist.libuv.org/dist/v1.44.2> and concludes that there’s no
newer release.  (Currently it doesn’t recurse so there’s no way it could
find the new release.)

We could fetch the code with ‘git-fetch’, in which case the ‘github’ or
‘generic-git’ updater would fire.

HTH,
Ludo’.
