I'd also add snaps (https://snapcraft.io) to the list as it's also a fairly common distribution method and can be easily integrated (https://build.snapcraft.io)

This feels like a good opportunity to improve community involvement.

When v1.0 is ready we (or Package Managers WG) should reach out to current maintainers of existing go-ipfs packages and ask them for help with adding ipfs-desktop one:

+ we should provide prebuilt standalone .deb and .rpm as best-effort approach to cover remaining Linux distros.

Brew cask just added as ipfs. See the PR for why it is not ipfs-desktop.

brew cask install ipfs for everyone.

Note that we now provide a generic Tar package (.tar.xz) for Linux.
It should make packaging for a specific distro easier (no need for manual build).

Might someone add and maintain a port for FreeBSD?

We have https://www.freshports.org/sysutils/ipfs-go/ for IPFS implementation in Go, but no port for IPFS Desktop.

An AUR would be nice :)

Nixpkgs, or just a nix file in the repo. 1 complication for this is the difficulty in setting up an Electron package at the moment. The unorthodox directory structure makes it difficult build normally.

It's available via scoop here.

ScoopInstaller/Extras#1597

scoop bucket add extras
scoop install ipfs-desktop

Could someone add WinGet to the list of package managers? It's still in active development, but I feel like Microsoft is going to make a larger push for it in the future.

I cannot find support Gentoo (portage) yet.

Could consider storing the installation files (.exe, .dmg, .tar.gz) in IPFS instead of Github storage?

@agnelvishal definitely, but we need to migrate autoupdate mechanizm to support that first – see my notes in #1263 (comment)

Flatpak would be nice!

Looks like I was completely ignored even thought winget was added to the list. Here's a reminder that I commented.

It's available via scoop here.

lukesampson/scoop-extras#1597

scoop bucket add extras
scoop install ipfs-desktop

It's important to not discriminate package managers. If this issue is not taken seriously, then please consider closing it.

@NatoBoram - note that Scoop has been listed in the docs at https://docs.ipfs.io/install/ipfs-desktop/#package-managers for a while now. Will update CLI instructions per your comment under ipfs/ipfs-docs#615.

There seems to be a package for WinGet now: https://winget.run/pkg/IPFS/IPFS-Desktop

@ShadSterling

Macports (macOS) has an ipfs package: https://ports.macports.org/port/ipfs/summary

I'm guessing it's just the CLI (not the Desktop), but should be on the list

I'm closing this and suggest that people just open a PR against "Install" section of README so it can be discovered by others with more ease :)

Added MacPorts in PR #1816

WinGet is still missing; I haven't used Windows since XP, so I'll leave that for someone more familiar.
Maybe @FireMasterK ?

Hello,
Why was this closed ?
There's currently no package manager support whatsoever for Debian-based distros (APT/PPA/Flatpak/Snap).
Thanks

I currently use the AppImage on Manjaro and it is very, very much a less than ideal experience. Trying to get it to consistently autostart when I login seems to be impossible. A Flatpak would be very much appreciated.
