Why not install taffybar by apt-get? #5

Closed JPustkuchen closed 7 years ago

Is there a reason why you are not using

sudo apt-get install taffybar but sudo dpkg -i taffybar_x.x.x-x_amd64.deb ?

Yes there is. Ubuntu 16.04 ships with an outdated version of taffybar. Installing it though dpkg ensures the latest version is used.
