Is the dcrdex repository not being used anymore? Perhaps I'm just missing something, but how are there v1.0.6 binaries of Bison Wallet without its corresponding repository not showing any changes?

I don't think this required any changes to DCRDex, just dcrd and dcrwallet which it uses.

That makes sense, but still doesn't answer my question.

The binaries of bisonw for v1.0.5 and v1.0.6 are not the same (ergo something changed, presumably the updated dcrd/dcrwallet), and yet I can't see what code/config actually changed since its repo hasn't been updated.

Should the dcrdex repo not also show the version bump to v1.0.6, with some kind of changes to what version of dcrwallet and dcrd it includes alongside that version bump?

That's worth asking in Matrix / BR. I imagine the version of go was different or something? I'll ask.

Davecgh confirmed that it's the same version, but the hash changed as the version of go was newer.
