Ubuntu Snappy Support #164

Closed leoherzog closed 4 years ago

leoherzog commented 8 years ago

Personally, I love the Github-based installation that MineOS uses now. However, with the dependencies that MineOS needs, stability may be improved by distributing via Ubuntu's new Snappy System.

It would be neat to consider having the install procedure instead be sudo snappy install mineos to grab the latest known-working versions of node.js, npm, rsync, Java, etc.

Does snappy actually provide any benefit over more common, distro-agnostic solutions like Docker?

leoherzog commented 8 years ago

They can live together

Yeah this would actually be very useful, +1 on this 👍

Snappy isn't likely to ever get developed on my end. It doesn't appear that snappy is well received, in general. If I am to ever go into the realm of immutable packages, I think Flatpak might be the best contender, so we don't find ourselves spending dev time and effort on what is still, largely an Ubuntu show.
