Should we start a bounty? Current .deb requires the user to have sudo privileges and installs into root file directory. The first one is cumbersome for TailsOS users and the second one is cumbersome for QubesOS users.
An AppImage, in contrast, is a self-contained packaging for linux programs, that doesn’t require sudo privs nor installation to root file dir. The user can simply double click on the AppImage and it will get Haveno working instantly.
Currently, Haveno/-Reto doesn’t have an AppImage release. How do we get one? I am not a programmer, so I can’t cook one for them. So, would opening a bounty on bounties.monero.social be helpful?
Agreed. Appimages have become the standard, releasing a distro specific package is not a good idea.
The appimage should include the required java and everything else needed to run the app so people can just download and launch.
Individual distros can create their own packages of the app if they desire.
