No RPMs (OpenSUSE), and FlatPak is legacy version?

[LanceHaverkamp]

Hi, I'm trying to see if TrilliumNext is something I could use, but I see no good way to install it: I see no RPMs, and the Flatpak is Trillium legacy. How far back are these on the To-Do list?

Having recently decided my linux home for the next x years is Bluefin I'm now also in the 'flatpak or rpm please' camp.

I see there's a top level doc for using github actions to build releases - https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak-github-actions. I'll take a crack at making it work. My github actions experiments so far have been mixed, so don't hold your breath waiting for my success. ;-)

I'll take a look at adding RPM packages – shouldn't be too difficult with electron-forge which we use already.

FYI, I've created a task out of it, that we can track here:
#1102

edit: you'll find some test RPM files in there too, would be great, if you could provide feedback on if those install fine on your systems, as I run on a deb based system myself

@LanceHaverkamp , @maphew , RPM builds are now available in the latest nightly. Feel free to test it if you wish. It should be relatively stable, despite being a nightly.

I've just tested in a virtual machine and it appears to run fine. Thanks to @pano9000 for taking the initiative of adding RPM support.

Flatpak is on the list as well, however it's more work than RPM.
