[Feature Request] Is there any possibility to add linux binaries in release? #27

Closed sqliuchang closed 4 years ago

sqliuchang commented 4 years ago

I now often work in Ubuntu 18.04 and find I can't input Chinese in snap store's telegram. And I can't tolerate those almost half screen stickers in the official app. So I come here to ask for linux version release. If not, I will try to build it with github actions and want to know which codes I should modify after I fork this repository.

sqliuchang commented 4 years ago

I have successfully compiled it in github actions and it works perfectly in Ubuntu 18.04!

I don't release Linux binaries, but I build them. So if you successfully built a Linux version, you probably will get the auto updates.

Can you share just one binary?

23rd commented 4 years ago

Yeah, I had a 1.9.6 binary, so I uploaded it to corresponding release.

You can download the latest version which was compiled yesterday https://github.com/sqliuchang/tdesktop/actions/runs/50161312

Then you can modify or touch this file /home/{#your_user_name}/.local/share/applications/telegramdesktop.desktop

@sqliuchang Unfortunately your binary was built with the Test API ID and with the Debug configuration.

I download the binary you suggested, and it updated to official telegram version :( No forkgram for linux

Are you sure about this? I double-checked it and it's properly updated.

Yes, I have the same problem yesterday.

It will update to official version if update automatically is enable before I login and it's default enabled. In this case, telegram has downloaded the official update when I login. And it shows "update telegram" in the lower left corner which I have never seen in forkgram.

Then I disable update automatically and move the original forkgram binary back. I can update normally in advanced settings now. I can't explain why but it just works.

By the way, I have never enabled install beta versions, but both windows and linux forkgarm client will update to 1.9.19 beta.

Sorry for my poor English.

Okay, what about this?
