Package request: pycharm-professional #48245

Open kutu-dev opened 9 months ago

kutu-dev commented 9 months ago

Package name

pycharm-professional

Package homepage

https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/

Description

The closed sourced version of PyCharm, currently the only way it can be used is with Flatpak and a more native aproach will be benecifial. I suppose it will need to be restricted in the same way the intellij-idea-ultimate-edition package is.

Does the requested package meet the package requirements?

System

Is the requested package released?

Yes

not really. you can install any jetbrains products via their toolbox app ( https://www.jetbrains.com/toolbox-app/ ).

@chrysos349 that is still far from ideal, as far as I can tell it doesn't make system-wise installs and puts all the files in a subdirectory in ~/.local. Maybe adding the toolbox itself as a pacakage would be a good middleground for making easier to install all the JetBrains products, specially the closed-sourced ones.
