Re: "Lagrange on Flathub"

In: s/Lagrange

Automatic updates are nice indeed, however note the current drawbacks of the Flatpak builds:

I can't stand flatpaks and snaps and all these extra things. AppImages are alright, but I love my package manager!

🕹️ skyjake [mod...] · 2023-06-07 at 05:30:

I should look into automating the AppImage updates, it could be done via a shell script and checking the releases RSS feed.

🐐 satch · 2023-06-07 at 13:08:

Ah yes that would be nice

I stopped using Flatpak at all... I compile Lagrange from source instead, even though the easy way is through Appimage...

@freezr I was tempted to compile Lagrange from source but then I felt guilty because I hadn’t done the dishes

So I use the AppImage

It's really good to hear that the Lagrange project is accessible enough for us all to install it in a way that we're comfortable with 😎

Lagrange on Flathub — I just switched over from the AppImage to Flathub. Now updates are automatic! 🙂🙂🙂
