Check for Updates not visible on Linux Mint 19.1

[rohit-s8]

The Check for updates section is completely missing when I installed via the debian package https://github.com/keeweb/keeweb/releases/download/v1.8.2/KeeWeb-1.8.2.linux.x64.deb. Found it in the General settings section when I downloaded the zip archive https://github.com/keeweb/keeweb/releases/download/v1.8.2/KeeWeb-1.8.2.linux.x64.zip.

Right, the auto-updater are disabled when the app installed from deb.

I don't remember why though. Found this ticket: #78, but it's a bit different thing. Most likely we can enable it in .deb.

Hmmm I see. I guess resolving #141 should resolve this as well. I am not completely certain whether letting the app update itself alone is possible without a PPA. I use sublime text from the main repository and the installed version is always slightly behind. It has an update checker of course, but it takes me to the download page instead which is not what i want to do

Most (if not all) Linux distributions expect applications not to update itself. For Ubuntu, PPA is the right way.
