wp core download with --locale failed #316
Description
Activity
However, even if the latest localized version is not yet available, WP-CLI should ideally fall back to downloading the most recent previously available version instead of failing with this error.
This may cause usage of insecure WordPress version. Because of that I use in my script
wp core download wp core install ... wp core language install pl_PL --activateAlternatively, falling back to en_US might be the safer option. However, you raise a valid point with your two-step approach. Does wp core language also modify the version.php file or does it just add the language files?
Sorry, I’m unable to test this at the moment.

$wp_local_packageis not set inwp-includes/version.phpwith my approach.I had already thought so. Thank you.
The de_DE ZIP file for 6.9.4 hasn't been built yet for some reason, see discussion https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RQBWTW/p1773313708432039. That's why you don't see 6.9.4 at https://de.wordpress.org/download/ yet.
I don't think it's worth adding any fallbacks to older (insecure) versions or a version with a different locale (unexpected) for this kind of temporary situation.
This should be resolved now.
Hi,
The command wp core download --locale=de_DE fails with the error:
Error: The requested locale (de_DE) was not found.
I’m aware that WordPress has recently had some issues with the release process. However, even if the latest localized version is not yet available, WP-CLI should ideally fall back to downloading the most recent previously available version instead of failing with this error.
