Syncthing binary not being kept up to date in Linux #563

Open fativi opened 3 years ago

It appears the syncthing-gtk process does not have access to right to /app/bin/syncthing to keep the binary up to date. This can be worked around by re-configuring to use a binary in your own home directory. Would still be neat to have working out of the box though!

Basic idea is that syncthing-gtk will use syncthing binary managed by package manager almost all the time and download and manage it only as last resort, if package manager is unable to.

Report this to the flatpak package: https://github.com/flathub/me.kozec.syncthingtk/issues/new although in this case, the described issue is not considered to be one. The problem is rather that the syncthing daemon is not up to date.
