Description verweis-buergerin-0o 2025-11-03 21:22:06 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #507051 +++
Hi,
I'm missing the portable windows download option for 8.8. (digiKam-8.8.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz)
This was the same issue when 8.7. was released and was fixed after I reported that issue => 507051 

Please provide such a version for the stable 8.8.0 release again and upload it to the download page.
Maybe you can find out why this download option is again missing.
Thanks a lot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go To https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/8.8.0/
2. file digiKam-8.8.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz is not there

EXPECTED RESULT
I would love to have a precompiled 8.8.0 windows version as in the past.

Windows: 
macOS: 
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
SUMMARY

Thanks. I saw that the portable version is available for the daily builds.
Any chance to get it for the official stable version as well?

Right. This is the files list generated while 8.8.0 release have been processed by the scripts and uploaded. I must admit that i don't double check the contents:

I must investigate why we have a difference between daily builds and release builds...
