Change the default scan directory for the Ubuntu package

[GnomoP]

When installed through the .deb package, which most Ubuntu and Ubuntu derivatives users do, Discord is installed in /usr/share, instead of in /opt like in the Arch package. Changing the default scan directory for the package distributed at the ppa would be a nice tweak to have out-of-the-box, though it isn't anything mind-bogging. Great script, btw

I could change the scan directory for the PPA, but is it a good idea for the script on the PPA to behave differently than the one here?

Could you give the full path for Discord under /usr/share?

[GnomoP]

It's just /usr/share/discord

I thought of a way to avoid having differences between the packages.
Debian and its derivatives, including Ubuntu and its own derivatives, have /etc/debian_version and/or /etc/debian_release. We could check whether they exist and change the scan location to /usr/share if they do.

@bb010g Should we implement this? What do you think?

This issue was closed, and it seems some code was added to attempt this but mine still doesn't detect my installation(was going to open a seperate issue but, github was like "hey there might already be a ticket on this!")

Right, looks like it doesn't work properly after all...

@piks Please try the latest master.

Well, we'll fix it eventually.
