Dekrol still working well

We recently restarted our chemical darkroom and have been ordering Dektol, the standard developer we used in the past. We have seen no quality control problems, powder is white, mixes well and performs as expected.

I like this product for long term storage in premixed state as opposed to liquids. It is the old reliable. I am not in the darkroom all the time, so I like keeping a few packs of powder versions of my basics. If I was in the darkroom a lot, maybe I would use other brands. At school I was happy with SPRINT because they are a bit less toxic, but I am still here after 50 years, so I guess it is okay. Plus I am nostalgic about having "Old Yellow" here!

Is it safe to purchase Dektol again? Or is there still something wrong with it?
I purchased Dektol recently, it's still the dark colored one. I've been having problems with it exhausting extremely quick. It will work fine for a couple of hours, but after that the tones on the paper become muddy and brown. The contrast is significantly reduced.

Does 'Dektol - 2019 Version' mean that it's the contaminated stuff?
In my experience yes.
Dektol with manufacturers date of 2020/04/01. Expiration date of 2023-04 was dark brown and stained prints.
Dektol purchased recently, expiration date 2024/11 was the correct color and acted normal in all respects. Dektol is back.

Why is it taking Kodak so long to fix this? Any end in sight?
I just bought some Dektol from Glazers in Seattle and it is back to it's normal color and performance. It is lot #2021/04/13066 and expires 2024/04. I print for two important photo archives so this is very good news for me. Craig
