Qt 6.8.0 for windows is in https://download.qt.io/online/qtsdkrepository/windows_x86/desktop/qt6_680/qt6_680/

There is a difference from 6.6.3

aqt expect package name as reference 'qt_base1 with qt.qt6.680.msvc2022_x86 but Update.xml has qt.qt6.680.win64_msvc2022_64

xavier2k6 commented 3 months ago

@miurahr Note: Qt 6.7.x will have both MSVC2019 & MSVC2022 binaries/packages (possibly .3 release, as .2 is just out) where as Qt 6.8.x will only have MSVC2022.

In one of the next bug-fix releases of Qt 6.7, possibly in Qt 6.7.2, we will add packages built with MSVC 2022 in addition to the MSVC 2019 ones as we have now.

You can specify "win64_msvc2022_64" or "win64_msvc2019_64" as arch argument.
