Continuing the discussion from Post-v7 new features and development news:

Hi guys, I want to try the new features on v7.99 branch but my Ubuntu 22.04 Nightly PPA (Index of /kicad/kicad-dev-nightly/ubuntu jammy) still on v7.0rc2. It this correct? The Nightly libraries are updating normal every day, as expected.

That does not look good. There should be no more release candidate version, as the stable V7.0.0 has been released.

I also have a KiCad-nightly, and currently it shows it’s version as:

Your build info from the fifth of February also shows it has not been updated for some time.

I had removed Kicad sudo apt purge kicad* and reinstalled sudo apt install kicad-nightly kicad-nightly-demos kicad-nightly-libraries without change the PPA configurations. Now, it is fixed.

It appears to be some mistake of APT with the most recent version strings of KiCad (It though that 7.0rc2 > 7.99 ?).
