Incorrect files inside of version 1.7 October 2023 Windows Zip file

[alexfraundorf-com]

Hello, It looks like the incorrect files were placed into the direwolf-1.7.0-9807304_x86_64.zip Zip folder for version 1.7 October 2023. The contents are a folder called direwolf-1.7.0-9807304_i686 so I believe this was done in error. Thank you for offering these compiled verisions. 73, Alex

Looking at this, it seems the 64bit zip file does indeed have a misleading i686 sub-directory but the contents within it are indeed 64bit. It's also a bit unclear to me why these two binary releases are coming from different git commits. I would have assumed they would be based upon the same git commit.

The 32bit archive version named direwolf-1.7.0-2260df1_i686.zip seems to be complete:

This 32bit archive also seems to have 32bit binaries in it:

/tmp/direwolf/direwolf-1.7.0-2260df1_i686$ file direwolf.exe direwolf.exe: PE32 executable (console) Intel 80386 (stripped to external PDB), for MS Windows

Next, looking at the 64bit version, inside of it looks to be complete but all within a "_i686" suffix named folder which is misleading:

Regardless, the binaries in this sub-folder seem to be 64bit binaries:
