Update Chocolatey Package

Open Yolakalemowa opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

What would you like to add or change?: Update Choco package. It's currently at version 1.0.0. But latest stable version is 1.6.10

Why do you and others need this?: chocolatey is a great package manager for windows and has been growing a lot. It's a great way to manage all my windows packages rather than have to take care of each app individually.

Would be much appreciated.

@Yolakalemowa we are not maintaining the Chocolatey packages.

But as a note, the v1 is the current version of the installer which is correct - I guess Chocolatey just Installer the installer and then it auto updates to the current version

this behavior can only change after we moved into making each reales a new (offline) install

making each reales a new (offline) install

Hi thanks for reply.

If I may ask, I'm a noob: do you recommend then I stick to downloading from your official site instead of chocolatey or doesn't matter? And are there plans on maintaining choco packages in future?

again we are not maintaining choco, and there are no plans for it.

since choco is not an official way to install Portmaster I would not use it unless you trust the person maintaining the Portmaster install there.
