# GoReleaser 2.17

This overview applies to target GoReleaser versions of at least `2.17`.

- Experimental nFPM `msix` packaging routes Windows binaries into MSIX packages while other configured formats receive matching Linux binaries. `publisher`, a logo, and at least one application are required.
- nFPM packages `riscv64` binaries into its supported Linux formats.
- Go `goarm` targets accept `softfloat` and `hardfloat` ABI suffixes, exposed to templates as `.Abi`.
- `dockers_v2` accepts `templated_dockerfile`, `templated_extra_files`, and retry configuration for transient build failures.
- SCM release repositories can use a custom token, and Winget manifests accept `default_locale` with an `en-US` default.
- Pro-only `verify` configuration and the `goreleaser verify` command re-download published assets and execute verification commands before announcements; verification can be omitted with `--skip=verify`.
- Pro-only repeated `--key` flags provide ordered fallback licence keys, with `GORELEASER_KEY` retained as the fallback when no flag is supplied.
