Character Sheets are created by the community. Posting in the Character Sheets forum is the best way to get corrections if something about the sheet is incorrect.

Good catch, I had just done this for one of my players that took archery focus, and didn't realize it was the proficiency bonus being added in the roll when we tested it. It looks like the ranged damage bonus is also broken... the new weapons section is definitely still a little buggy.

However if you use the Old weapons section, it will add the bonus, those just won't show up on the quick options.

This was fixed a while ago. Not sure why the roll20 version doesn't have it fixed. Ranged weapons use the melee bonus in that version.

I'll look into why and fix it when I'm back from vacation.

EDIT: I verified that my compiled and precompiled code are both the correct version. I verified that roll20 has the correct version on their github, but not on the live version. I'll PM one of the devs.

EDIT 2: It was merged on June 1st - I've asked why it hasn't been put live yet.
Awesome. Thanks folks. I appreciate the quick response!

I've noticed the same issue Mark. I've had some patches on the PF sheet that were included two PR's back that are still not showing on the sheet...

Update:
made a bug report here Community Sheet not updating after PR

I asked Ryan (the new intern) via PM. He said that he'd look into it. I'll PM you if I hear any news.
