[Packaging] Make this wallet available as flatpak package on FlatHub #16

Open Nokia808 opened 4 years ago

Nokia808 commented 4 years ago

Hi. Can you, kindly, make your wallet available as flatpak package on FlatHub? This way, you will make your wallet available for almost all Linux distros & users. Flatpak is a universal generic Linux package & is secure & sandbox.

Flatpak is much better than AppImage formate, being more secure & more convenient & easier to packaged than AppImage.

1) home page of FlatHub is: https://www.flathub.org/home 2) FlatHub repositories are at: https://github.com/flathub 3) when some one like to add package to FlatHub, she/he need to open PR at: https://github.com/flathub/flathub/pulls 4) FlatHub differ from snap by being allow any one to package not only developers of packages. So packages on FlatHub are of 2 kinds regarding this point: some are packaged by their developers like shotcut video editor, while other are packaged by person other than their developers. So, 5) developers of Electrum Verge themselves can package their wallets by themselves. This will be ideal. 6) all packages on FlatHub are signed ..... 7) even if person other than the original developer(s) maintain the package on FlatHub, FlatHub team try as much as possible to make developer(s) authorized to repositories at least to monitor & follow up the packaging ...... 8) FlatHub allow both open & closed source packages. But regarding open source packages, the FlatHub team insisting on packager to make them deterministic (reproducible).
