I named my first version 0.1.0-alpha-1 and ran publish dry-run and then from-dry-run command, but electron-forge ended with a following error:

Attempted to resume a dry run but an artifact (/home/circleci/repo/dist/electron/out/make/radio-drama-soundboard_0.1.0-alpha-1_amd64.deb) could not be found

The problem is that such a version is renamed by the deb packager to this:

radio-drama-soundboard_0.1.0~alpha-1_amd64.deb

Notice the tilde separating major.minor.patch and metadata. The version name is valid from perspective of semver 2.0.

What command line arguments are you passing?

electron-forge publish --dry-run -p linux
electron-forge publish --from-dry-run -p linux

What does your config.forge data in package.json look like?

Appears to be an issue with our path guessing logic
