Yes, it is a fake, since as usual, they advertise NON-official versions on their website.
The one they are distributing doesn't work correctly.

It is a beta.
We don't do anything, because we can't do anything. This is GPL software, they do what they want.

Why previous (beta) version not have info about 'beta'?
BTW
Yesterday, i'm download of course from official site - i'm just not use direct link from main site.
And i'm don't see any info about beta or stable.

What is your point ?
We make some test releases, if they fail on the quality side, we don't announce them. Taking .exe from FTP and annoucing as official when they still are in 0.8.6broken folder is rude AND stupid. But this isn't our fault.
