Autoupdate Downloads Wrong CPU Architecture #11

Open aidan-gibson opened 1 month ago

aidan-gibson commented 1 month ago

I got the "new version of qidi studio" notification, hit download, and the "Intel" / x86 version was the version downloaded. The version I already had was the arm x64 version (I have an m-series mac / apple "silicon"). The update offer should offer the correct CPU architecture.

The workaround, of course, is manually downloading the correct version from releases on this repo.

Thanks.

In general, arm64 systems are compatible with x86 versions of software. However, we will optimize this problem in the future.

Yep, it'll "work", but seems silly to direct users updating to the wrong CPU arch when you have both options available. I'll see if I can find the time for a PR to fix this at some point. Alternatively you could just release a universal build for the app, but that'd probably be more work, I'm not sure. Thanks!
