System details

Expected behavior

I went to add whatsapp gpg key and... Not found was the console message. This link is down [(https://packagecloud.io/Enrico204/Whatsapp-Desktop)] "The page you were looking for doesn't exist."

Step to reproduce the behavior

[#curl -L https://packagecloud.io/Enrico204/Whatsapp-Desktop/gpgkey | sudo apt-key add - gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found]

I think this is a fork from the original repository.

There you can read why this project had to be closed (this is from the README):

Due to the copyright DMCA that WhatsApp/Facebook is sending to all projects that are using "Whatsapp" in their names, and the lack of time to counteract any changes that WhatsApp team is doing in order to make the development of this project hard, I'm abandoning this project.

You can still build it from source.

This is from the README before the last commit:

Build from source

To build from the source, run the following commands: yarn install yarn run build:platform

where build:platform can be build:linux if you want to build for Linux (use build:linux32 for 32-bit), build:osx for OSX only, build:win for Windows only, or simply build to build for all platforms.
