I am confused.
If this is being touted as a development release and not for use on live sites then why is it being offered as an update on my Joomla site?
Is the description incorrect?

Amazing news, thanks for keeping up the good work.
It is sad for me that in my current situation I cannot update Kunena.
We are using Joomla V6.0.2, and I cannot update to Kunena 6.4.8 as it is deemed invalid.
Manual update to version 7.0 is not possible either as this is not supported for the current version 6.3.10 that we are currently on.
I need some advice, please, on how to update our existing version.

Hello,

Make a backup of your site first. Try to update manually to Kunena 6.4.8 by downloading the package from here : github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Forum/releases/tag/6.4.8 , if it's ok make a new backup of your site at this point and make the update to Kunena 7.0.0 like it will be showed in Joomla! updater

Bonjour Xillibit,

unfortunately this is what I already did - downloading version 6.4.8 and then manually trying to update. This is not possible.
