Quarto blog category listing pages no longer displaying correct posts

Description

My Quarto blog's category pages are no longer showing the posts that they should. Many aren't showing any posts at all. The main blog home page is fine, but if I click any of the categories, they no longer work. They used to work. I don't know exactly when they stopped working, it may be when I upgraded my Linux server's R and RStudio versions but it could have been before.

Main index.qmd page:

---
title: "My Next Chapter"
listing:
  contents: posts
  sort:
    - "date desc"
    - "order asc"
    - "title asc"
  type: default
  categories: true
  feed: 
    type: partial
  sort-ui: false
  filter-ui: false
page-layout: full
title-block-banner: true

The _quarto.yaml file:

website:
  title: "My Next Chapter: A Retirement Journey"
  site-url: "https://NextChapter.machlis.com"
  description: "One woman's experience entering a new stage of life after decades of full-time work. What's it like leaving a professional identity (partly) behind? A blog about retiring, vibrant aging, and fighting ageism."

This no longer works whether I try to render on my Linux server or locally on my Windows machine. My Linux Quarto environment:

My guess is that your quarto-listing.js in your "freezer" might need an update.
You can delete site_libs in it to ensure it's updated.
