OpenWebStart Binaries (non-installer) #574

Open basvdvelden opened 3 months ago

basvdvelden commented 3 months ago

We want to use OpenWebStart on the RHEL machines of our users. It's not a big issue if there isn't an installer for that platform. But a zip file with just the binaries would be really great. (i know the file associations would have to be configured some other way) Any plans to make the binaries available?

Not sure if that helps, but you can simply extract the data from the provided deb file:

ar p /tmp/OpenWebStart_linux_1_10_0.deb data.tar.gz | tar xz

It creates opt/OpenWebStart in the current directory - or add --strip-components=1 at the end to create it as ./OpenWebStart
