Hello,
The only "software" I made are very little and are small bash scripts, I have
not enough programming knowledge to have a good opinion on technical issues.
For me, but maybe it sounds strange to you and I guess it's false, the .tar.gz and
programs which are compiled are common to linux distributions
What I made was setting things to be more lightweight and make run again old computers
that people throw in the bin, I like a lot archlinux and antix for this, it's simple
and lightweight.
I tried to make override command lines and other commands on flatpak, it didn't work
to allow delta chat to access user files.
I searched to find a solution, and thought it's not well conceived or the
documentation is not clear enough.
What I can help is help to write something, a tutorial, in french, maybe some
documentation.
For me delta chat is really a nice idea and tool, compatible with everybody, but still I
wonder why sandboxing something trustfull.
I run replicant on a phone, and saw that desktop and mobile delta chat are not the same,
mobile seem more complete, I can understand why.
Thank you,

Deltachat-desktop is in the aur since a long time, so
shouldn't be a
problem to get it running on arch
(i'm using it myself). It builds from latest master so you always get a
development preview. I guess you
can hack in a specific commit/tag into the PKGBUILD to get a specific
version built.

users,
Hello,
I don't understand why flatpak!?
This software is awful, it doesn't work or I didn't understand
anything! Virtualbox, dosbox, or other interfaces are far ahead.
While using
flatpak does require some initial setup to be done by it was the platform which gave us the most
realistic path to creating
binary packages which we would have a high confidence of working on
many
linux distributions. We also expect the initial
hurdle of flatpak to
diminish over time.
If you have issues with getting flatpak setup qit would be great if
you
could work with the flatpak project to work out
issues and improve
flatpak usage for others. If the problem you're experiencing is with
the Delta Chat flatpak build itself it would be great if you could
work
with us to fix the issues.
Lastly, there are various people working on more native support for
some
Linux distributions. But this is not a trivial
amount of work and
there
are many distributions, so this largely depends
on people
volunteering
to support the distribution they care about.
> I'm happy to use archlinux, somebody put in on aur, it means no
flatpak!
If you would like to work on making Delta Chat
directly available on
AUR, that would be great. The deltchat-core dependency is already on
AUR if I'm not mistaken.
Kind Regards,
Floris
