I am not able to install the desktop package - I'm using ubuntu 16.04.

sudo dpkg -i webtorrent-desktop_0.6.1-1_amd64.deb && sudo apt-get install -f

It goes through unpacking, setting up, but then say 0 newly installed and I can not find it on my system.

I ended up trying "npm install webtorrent-desktop" which worked - probably should be in the readme

Cool, glad you got it figured out. We actually don't want to encourage using the version on npm too much since it currently doesn't run the auto-updater. We'll consider publicizing that in the future.
