[RPM version] We need an RPM version for Linux

Open mysticaltech opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Feature description

It would be great to have RPM packages.

Motivation

Half of Linux users are on distros that work with RPMs like OpenSUSE and RedHat, and Fedora (with Linus Torvalds himself uses).

Alternatives

AppImage is not practical, it's cumbersome to launch and use and does not work with package managers so not easy to update upon new releases, it requires manual work

Additional context

Ok, thanks! For the moment I do not have the time. But maybe someone else will be able to do so in the future.

Between, I tried converting the .deb to .rpm with alien, this worked, but the installation failed.
