Hi @luckedea , there's been interest in including your NZBGet QPKG with sherpa.

It would replace the existing QPKG, which offers NZBGet 21.1 via Entware.

Let me know if this is something you're happy for me to-do. Cheers! 🤓

[luckedea]

@OneCDOnly Thanks for reaching out, yes absolutely, what's needed from us?

[OneCDOnly]

Ah, that's the best-part - nothing! 😁

I'll update the references in sherpa to pull and install your prepared QPKG assets from your latest release. Something for me to do today.

Thank you. 👍🏽

@OneCDOnly Ping me when done (or if you need anything),I'll link it from our download instructions too.

[OneCDOnly]

Will do. Your QPKG works-well, and should be good-to-go “live” in sherpa shortly. 👍

I’ll message back when this happens.

Hi @luckedea, we're all good-to-go here. Your NZBGet QPKG is now available via the sherpa package manager. 🤓

For those new to sherpa, once it's installed on your QNAP NAS, NZBGet installation is done with:

sherpa install nzbget

I forgot to mention: all sherpa-managed QPKGs are pseudo-signed (they are installed, then sherpa hacks the QTS signing database so QTS thinks each QPKG is properly signed), so there's no-need to "allow packages without a signature" in your local App Center.
