Returns every taxonomic backbone taxify() can match against, its taxonomic
scope, and (once the manifest is reachable) its current version, name count,
download size, and whether it is already installed locally. The counterpart to
list_enrichments() for the backbone side.
Value
A data.frame with columns: name, scope, n_names, size_mb,
version, source_date, installed, source. n_names, size_mb, and
version are NA for any backbone the manifest does not yet describe or
when the manifest cannot be fetched offline.
version is the release that packaged the backbone; source_date is the
date of the upstream data, which can be much earlier. The GBIF backbone is
the case that matters: GBIF froze it at 2023-08-28 and has said it will not
be updated again, so a current release tag there carries a treatment three
years older than the tag suggests. source_date is NA for a backbone
whose upstream date has not been recorded.
