+## 📦 Download Latest Build
+
+**Last Built**: 2025-07-21 07:35:00 UTC  
+**Version**: 2025.2-1~noble1  
+**Target**: Ubuntu Noble (24.04 LTS)
+**Build ID**: [11](https://git.raines.xyz/robojerk/libostree-dev/actions/runs/11)
+
+### ⚠️ Important Note
+
+The CI/CD workflow successfully builds the packages, but there are currently issues with the Forgejo Package Registry uploads. The packages are built successfully but not yet accessible via direct download links.
+
+### Current Status
+
+- ✅ **Build Process**: Working correctly
+- ✅ **Package Creation**: All packages built successfully
+- ❌ **Package Registry**: Upload issues being resolved
+- 🔄 **Manual Download**: Available via workflow artifacts
+
+### How to Get the Packages
+
+#### Option 1: Download from Workflow Artifacts (Current)
+Since the package registry uploads are having issues, you can download the packages directly from the workflow artifacts:
+
+1. **Go to the Actions page**: https://git.raines.xyz/robojerk/libostree-dev/actions
+2. **Find the latest successful build** (Build #11)
+3. **Click on the build** to view details
+4. **Download the artifacts** (if available) or check the build logs for package locations
+
+#### Option 2: Build Locally (Recommended)
+The most reliable way to get the packages is to build them locally:
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://git.raines.xyz/robojerk/libostree-dev.git
+cd libostree-dev
+
+# Run the backport script
+./libostree-dev_noble_backport.sh
+```
+
+#### Option 3: Manual Build Process
+If you prefer to build manually:
+
+```bash
+# Install build dependencies
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install -y devscripts build-essential wget git
+
+# Create build directory
+mkdir -p /opt/Projects/ostree-backport-noble
+cd /opt/Projects/ostree-backport-noble
+
+# Download source from Ubuntu Questing
+wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/ostree/ostree_2025.2-1.dsc
+wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/ostree/ostree_2025.2.orig.tar.xz
+wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/ostree/ostree_2025.2-1.debian.tar.xz
+
+# Extract and build
+dpkg-source -x ostree_2025.2-1.dsc
+cd ostree-2025.2
+dch --newversion "2025.2-1~noble1" --distribution "noble-backports" -b "Backport for bootc compatibility"
+sudo apt build-dep ./
+dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b
