Snaps work across Linux on any distribution or version.

Snaps are secure. All the dependencies are isolated from the rest of system. Snaps also auto update when release a new version.

So with the snap published, the user can install it using the command:

e.g: sudo snap install ark-desktop-wallet

So, this is the state of the snap package.

  • feat/linux-snap-package is the branch for that.
  • The package is working when installed with the --dangerous since we don't have the signatures from snap. This version was compiled from the latest devel branch, so I'm just using it for testing purposes.
sudo snap install ark-desktop-wallet-linux-amd64-2.8.0.snap --dangerous 
  • Created the Ubuntu One/Snapcraft account and registered ark-desktop-wallet, so we can publish the snap package. Everything is registered under ark domain.
  • Also, I'm reading the docs for both snapcraft and debian to publish them in our own repo.

All of this work can be considered trivial without further discussion.
