It is not part of the latest release

Have you tried using the v3 branch? The archives feature was added about six months after the latest v2 release.

I know, but How? the latest version is at 2.14, and replacing @v2 with @v3 won't work.

[ddalcino]

Well, if using @v3 doesn't work, that's a problem. The README should definitely be updated to show you how to turn this feature on.

Have you tried @master, or @7933445fc5670b1ef4eeedb981cf8f14647f2e1a?

I reported the bug so people won't use those tricks.

It seems like the repi owner is not active in github since about two months. Maybe he is dead or something!

@jurplel is probably just busy with real life or something. It took him 3 or 4 months to merge some PRs I filed last year, so this kind of absence is ordinary. Open source can be a lot of work, and we should be patient and understanding. Perhaps he could use some help from a co-maintainer?

[jurplel]

indeed i am busy with life! I am very busy with college courses + TAing, so I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to open source stuff.

I will definitely get install-qt-action back into shape this summer. My finals week is this week so hopefully imminently.

So yeah, decidedly not dead.

wait so how to use the archives options?
