latest-mac.json is not being created when publishing to Github

See original GitHub issue
  • Version: 11.2 1.7.1
  • Target: Windows Mac

Whenever publishing to Github, there is not latest-mac.json included in the release, but there is a latest.yml file being published. This is also exactly the same in my dist directory: There is a latest.yml, but no latest-mac.json. Why is it not there?

Why is it not produced just with a dmg? The latest-mac.json definitely needs to be created no matter what type of target you are using. This needs to be changed in my opinion.

@adamsiwiec have you changed the Mac build target setting from default?

I had specified DMG only in my Mac target and had the same problem of no latest-mac.json being created. After changing the Mac target back to the default (which produces zip and DMG) then latest-mac.json is generated.
