It would be useful to have up to date Riot in debian, so it would flow to ubuntu & other debian based distros and be available in appstore without doing anything. https://snapcraft.io/riot-web | 08:50:32 |

| RAOF | Up-to-date Riot for Debian, Ubuntu, Manjaro, Fedora, RHELā¦ š | 08:51:45 |
 cos | Now we can open discunssions about do snaps for oss apps suck or not | 08:51:54 |
 tulir | that's also not official | 08:52:46 |
| RAOF | Eh, let's not. | 08:53:08 |

that's also not official True. If you'd like to make it official I know Popey would love to transfer ownership to you!
| 08:54:03 |
| cos | I would not recommend using unofficial snap of riot, anyone can make one. | 08:54:10 |
 Mathijs | man, matrix is so much snappier with the new hardware and the fresh rooms :D | 08:54:42 |

 wnereiz | As I know, riot desktop is based on electron, right? | 08:55:23 |
| Mathijs | yes, it's just riot-web in electron | 08:56:13 |
| wnereiz | Why not to use riot-web? It is basically same to run in electron and in web broswer | 08:57:01 |

|  sleep_tight joined the room. | 08:57:23 |
| cos | It should be quite simple to setup pipeline to share riot desktop from git to debian repository and update it. Someone just needs to do it. | 08:57:33 |
|  mkatee joined the room. | 08:57:40 |
| cos | Is matrix.org migration now complete? | 08:58:08 |

It should be quite simple to setup pipeline to share riot desktop from git to debian repository and update it. Someone just needs to do it. If you mean āgit to official Debian repositoriesā, then a Debian maintainer who did that would quickly be no longer a Debian maintainer.

| cos | RAOF: debian hates electron or what? | 08:59:23 |

RAOF: debian hates electron or what? Yes*, but that's not the problem. | 09:00:32 |
| RAOF | The problem is āpipeline from git to repositoryā. | 09:00:58 |
|  Paul joined the room. | 09:01:27 |
| RAOF | (*: I'm not sure that it's possible to build electron from source, which would be a prerequisite for putting anything electron-based into the archive) | 09:01:54 |
| cos | Every debian package has some kind of pipeline from version control to debian repository | 09:02:07 |
