Add repo to linux package managers #178

Open rjsmith899 opened 5 months ago

When can Muffon be added to the Linux Mint, Debian, and PPA Ubuntu repositories? And can you add Muffon to Flatpak if it is not possible to add it to a repository? Add it to one of these repositories, or Flatpak can be more accessible to the user of the product to keep updated vs. manually doing it with a deb or app image. Thanks

Hello @rjsmith899 Thanks for your suggestion.

  1. Debian Repo: This would need a dedicated maintainer which we don't have and don't have time to do ourselves. Also we would have to search for a sponsor.
  2. PPA: It's sadly not directly possible to publish nodejs / electron applications to a PPA (Workaround: code another app which serves as a installer, which is time consuming and can introduce bugs)
  3. flathub: That's actually possible, I'll talk to @staniel359 about it and keep you updated

Thanks for taking the time and giving muffon a shot, we really appreciate it. - gamer si (Admin & Dev)

Ok I didn't know how much work it would take for a repo. I am sorry about that. Flathub would be great it be host online. thanks for responding back quickly. I don't have no problems with the software. I just want to making some suggestion. I didn't know how much work it would take. thanks again

Suggestions are considered very valuable, thank you so much! The team is currently looking into it.

We have officially assigned @gamersi to this issue and he'll be taking care of this.

Have a great day :)
