snap package available in store

ppd commented 5 years ago

Hi,

I packaged your great tool as a snap package and pushed it to the snap store: https://snapcraft.io/uconfig

Makes it a little easier to be installed on Ubuntu (and others).

Cheers Max

Hi, Thanks for this amazing job, great idea. If some parts of the tools needs some improvement to be packaged, feel free to contact me. Cheers, Seb

I have a few ideas:

Provide install option/target in qmake so one can do make install afterwards. I believe this is missing and so I provided this step in the snap. However I have no experience with qmake and so it might be the snapcraft qmake plugin that does something wrong
SVG logo. The currently packaged one looks a bit rough
A few more coherent sentences to describe the package. Those could appear in the README.md too.
A desktop file is a must. I threw something together in the snap package. Maybe we could upstream this and enhance it a little. This could also be added to a qmake install target.
a new release at some point would be nice. I'd be comfortable pushing that to the "stable" channel in the store. Atm it's in the "edge" channel

Maybe I'll tackle a few of those myself, if time allows it.

You could also add this button to the project:
