.desktop download recommendation #38

Closed lavenderdotpet closed 1 year ago

lavenderdotpet commented 1 year ago

id recommend putting a the .desktop in a zip to avoid the auto download issue or including a 2nd link for people having the download issue since for me the problem continued after rebooting

so i had to just copy paste it into a text file and rename that txt to .desktop

I was actually planning on swapping the curl for a wget, do you think that would be acceptable? Zipping it is annoying since it basically becomes a blob 😅

lavenderdotpet commented 1 year ago

not sure on the differences between curl and wget so idk

and gottcha

maybe put the .desktop in releases? not sure if it would run into the same download issue

It would, unfortunately. I had a similar issue with the binary when I rolled the update out this morning, and fixed it by using wget. I'll see about changing it locally tomorrow and hopefully it works well.

Thank you for reporting the issue!

I think I may have initially misunderstood your issue. I read this as the installer failed, but you're saying that right click download didn't work for you?

lavenderdotpet commented 1 year ago

correct

CryoByte33 commented 1 year ago

Ahhh okay, this is a known bug with KDE/Firefox and there's a step in the troubleshooting section about it.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I was at work and should have spent more time parsing this 😅

Since this isn't specific to this repo, and I've replicated on other sites, I'll close this and try to think of a better way to distribute in the future.
