Latest Kicad version

Asked by Leandro Heck

I don't know where to ask this. Sorry if here is not the right place.

I am using the latest Kicad and it shows the version 6.0.0-rc1-unknown-1a22918~65~ubuntu18.04.1
I was using the latest version to get the changes from version 5 but now I am seeing it is version 6.

Version 5 was already released? From where I can download this version 5?

The KiCad source has been tagged for version 5 release and the version 6 development has begun. That is why you are seeing version 6 in the nightly builds. The version 5 libraries, docs, and translations should be tagged by the end of the week. Once the build servers have been updated and finished building version 5 for release, they will be made available on the KiCad website. By the end of next week, everything should be a go for the stable 5 release. I will make the announcement on the KiCad website and user forum once the everything is officially released.
