Direct Fedora users to use the Flatpak instead of old RPM versions #2660
Comments
There is already such a suggestion present: Line 110 in fe59468

@PF4Public I think he'd like this part of the README removed:
|
I personally see no reason in removing and then restoring that line later if maintenance status changes. It's just obvious that if repository has no activity, it is not maintained and therefore one is either invited to contribute or search for alternatives, like Flatpak. Removing it sounds more like bike-shedding to be honest. Although I must admit it might be a good idea to mention the maintenance status (of all repos actually) right there to spare user wandering time. |
This is why I raised this issue - thanks for phrasing it better than I did |
You could also direct users to COPR. I had no luck finding a maintained package there so I built one myself but others can benefit from it as well. BTW, flatpak is not an option for me. If you're using it only for ungoogled-chromium then the package takes almost 2 GB on HDD compared to 300 MB from RPM, and uses more RAM at runtime due to libraries duplication. |
Is this a problem anymore? All I typed was |
Interesting. Could you show us who's the vendor of your package by posting here the result of |
Sorry, I wrote that comment really late at night, so it's completely wrong lol. I actually did did add a COPR for it: Here is the COPR. Seems maintained for now. Though it does say:
Depending on how long this COPR is maintained for, perhaps Fedora instructions could link to this instead? |
Anyone up for a PR? :D |
As discussed in ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-fedora#28 (sorry because I didn't notice this issue before and caused some confusions there), the plan now is that I will create a PR to add a link to the COPR, and I'm working on bring back the RPM Fusion package. |
