rugk Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Flatpak and snap are two new technologies for distributing software. As far as I see you currently cover most Linux distros, so it is not really needed yet, but it could be an idea for offering 0ad in another way in the future. The advantages are that you can built the release yourself and it is (often) sandboxed. However, it may be large as you need to include all dependencies.

sphyrth Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 @oSoMoN already said that snaps are ready for Alpha 22. This seems to be a potential FAQ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugk Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Okay, great. What about flatpaks? We need them both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sphyrth Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Not sure about that, though. The devs need someone to take care of both if that were to happen. I'm just happy that I can download all the deb files I need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oSoMoN Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I realize this is a very late reply, but hopefully it's useful for people searching the forum: I regularly update the 0ad snap with the latest releases. The current version in the stable channel is 0.0.23b-alpha, while the edge channel has a fairly recent svn development snapshot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
