latest.json only had linux-x86_64, built from the .deb. An .rpm install
looks up linux-x86_64-rpm first, then fell back on linux-x86_64,
downloaded the .deb and refused it (InvalidUpdaterFormat).
- scripts/build-latest-json.sh writes linux-x86_64-deb,
linux-x86_64-rpm, linux-x86_64 (the .deb, as a fallback) and
windows-x86_64 from the release assets. It fails unless it finds
exactly one .deb, one .rpm and one -setup.exe, each with a non-empty
.sig. The JSON comes from jq alone, notes read with --rawfile, file
names encoded with @uri like the upload step.
- scripts/build-latest-json.test.mjs (vitest) runs it under
bash -e -o pipefail on a temporary assets dir; check-frontend
installs jq.
- release.yml calls the script, writes the notes output under a random
delimiter, checks the manifest with jq before the registry DELETE,
and names the .rpm instead of an AppImage in the release notes.
- verify-release.sh requires the four keys, the extension of each URL
and the minisign file: of each signature, and exits 1 on any failure.
- Docs: release skill, qa-update-cycle section 3 (rpm procedure, keys,
reason and removal condition of the fallback), architecture, README,
CHANGELOG, STATE.
