manage your permissions? this works correctly

miru isn't on any installer because that means maintaining it, i dont have the time, use official installs and auto-updater

Laurent001 commented 1 week ago

I am not asking an installer 🙂 Just need to make a minor fix in the doc to make it easier to install with the .deb package.

If I execute : apt install deb-package (doc) apt will try to go online and try to find the package and will not find it.

After downloaded the miru package, we need to make it exec (chmod +x) and launch install with apt like this : "apt install ./deb-package" instead of "apt install deb-package"

I can make a MR if you prefer but I cannot because I have no permission to push.

I see no need for the extra clarification that linux-Miru-*.deb is a file, as the description clearly says to download the file. But since its an undocumented feature of apt (except for the release changelog, which doesn't even indicate the correct way of using it) maybe we could change the instructions from apt install linux-Miru-*.deb to apt install /path/to/linux-Miru-*.deb.

On a side note, is there a reason for the deb file to be executable? AFAIK you aren't running it, you're just passing the path to apt to handle it.

Sounds very good to me !
