📥 Which file do I download?

  • Fedora: drime-desktop-0.5.0-1.fc44.noarch.rpm — double-click it (GNOME Software installs it) or run sudo dnf install ./drime-desktop-*.rpm.
  • Ubuntu 24.04+ / Debian 13+: drime-desktop_0.5.0_all.deb — first install rclone 1.73 or newer from rclone.org (curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash; the rclone in the Ubuntu/Debian archives is too old), then run sudo apt install ./drime-desktop_*.deb.
  • Any other distribution (Flatpak): drime-desktop-0.5.0.flatpak — open it with your software center or run flatpak install --user ./drime-desktop-0.5.0.flatpak (it offers to add Flathub for the GNOME runtime). rclone is bundled. The virtual drive needs fuse3 installed on your system, and the drive and the sync run in Drime's own background service instead of systemd units — see Flatpak limitations.

Afterwards open Drime from your applications and follow the wizard.

The other files are not needed for a normal install:

  • *.src.rpm — source package, for rebuilding the RPM
  • *.tar.gz — plain source code

Requirements and manual steps: see the README.

What's changed

  • New Flatpak bundle (drime-desktop-.flatpak) for every other distribution, next to the RPM and the DEB. It bundles rclone 1.75.1 and runs on the GNOME 50 runtime; install it with your software center or flatpak install --user
  • In the Flatpak the drive and the sync folder are run by Drime's own background service (drime-desktop --daemon) instead of systemd user units, started at login through the desktop's background permission and restarted by the app if it dies. The virtual drive mounts through the host's fusermount3, so it needs fuse3 installed on the system; without it the wizard and Settings offer the sync folder and the web app only
  • Flatpak updates: the app downloads the new bundle and opens it in your software center (no PackageKit inside the sandbox)
  • Configuration, cache and web data locations follow the XDG base directory variables (unchanged on the RPM and DEB; ~/.var/app// in the Flatpak)
