package now available for QNAP NAS
Hi guys, I like this utility, so I've packaged it in a format suitable for QNAP NAS. https://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?f=320&t=157781
Cheers! 👍🏽
Thank you @OneCDOnly!
I'll have to first make my mind up how I want to handle user-contributed packages however. I have set out my thoughts in #62:
"I appreciate your effort and your packages, I really do! However I feel like software packaging is a trust-based relationship, and that's not something I should relay unless I can personally vouch for the integrity of the binaries.
I see this as a problem we can solve tho: we need reproducible builds."
@muesli okiedoke, if there's anyway I can help, please let me know. 👍🏽
@OneCDOnly Actually, if you don't mind I'll keep this ticket open. Not only is it a good reminder for me that I still need to do something about this situation, but it may also be helpful for people who actively search for it.
If they decide to trust your packages, then that's cool with me: I just don't want to make it seem like I'm endorsing these packages when I can't verify their integrity myself.
Maybe that also means I just need to find the right wording in the README to clarify the situation regarding these kind of third-party packages.

No problem.
The binaries contained within each QPKG are those found on your releases page: https://github.com/muesli/duf/releases which can easily be check-summed to confirm they haven't been altered.
The remainder of the QPKG is shown here: https://github.com/OneCDOnly/duf
This QPKG can be separately built by anyone running the QDK package from QNAP: https://github.com/qnap-dev/QDK
If you don't have a QNAP NAS, QDK can also be installed on Ubuntu. 👍🏽
