The files in that tarball seem to have been last updated almost two months ago; 
I don't know what determines the schedule for that. The bleeding edge database 
is available at the git repository:

 https://github.com/lensfun/lensfun/tree/master/data/db

but there are a couple of caveats. The files are in "version 2" format, which 
needs to be backported for versions of lensfun < 0.3 due to restructuring. You 
would need to determine what version of lensfun your software is using. The 
repository is also subject to possible errors and subsequent corrections, so 
any use of it should probably include watching the repository for commits.
