   Or, using macOS:

4. Download the latest Deezer Windows or macOS installer, as deezer.exe or deezer.dmg respectively, e.g. using wget:

   wget 'https://e-cdn-content.dzcdn.net/builds/deezer-desktop/8cF2rAuKxLcU1oMDmCYm8Uiqe19Ql0HTySLssdzLkQ9ZWHuDTp2JBtQOvdrFzWPA/darwin/x64/4.18.30/DeezerDesktop_4.18.30.dmg' -O deezer.dmg

Run the build script:

replacing <platform> with either win or mac, depending on which sources you would like to build from.

Once complete, you should have a DEB package in the out directory.
