Opinion impopulaire : je déteste les jours fériés car cassant la routine.
Au point qu'une fois, j'ai attendu le bus pendant 20 minutes pour rien.

Willing to give this a go.
Alright, don't hesitate to ask questions if you have any and request help if you need any
My go-to for getting non-repo debs automatically has been deb-get
Yes, I mentioned it in the Differences with deb-get & AM section of my tutorial.
it seems to go long periods of time between PR merges and releases (which includes adding new software)
Yeah, I could reiterate in that section that my app allows the user to add apps themselves.

I didn’t say it was more secure, I said it’s about the same.
You said automation breeds laziness (by design, to an extent) and lazy end users tend to shoot themselves in the foot.
So, my question is : what part of automating download of DEBs from a specific source can be shooting oneself in the foot compared to doing the same thing manually every time ?
you should legally protect yourself
The MIT license will take care of that.
Also, to force the user to accept and acknowledge that the software they are installing using this tool is not verified to be safe is inducing fear and/or guilt, therefore is bad UX, I'm not doing that.

It's more functional than object-oriented and I read the former better than the latter. 😅

How is the manual step more secure though ?
What does the user do before downloading a DEB that makes that gap between manual and automated ?
I'd be willing to try and reproduce that, but I don't see anything.

My point is that I'm working a solution for end users.
The solutions you're offering are not user-friendly.

Well, I'm just automating what people currently have to do manually : visit GitHub and download DEB and install DEB.
If the automated process would be dangerous then the manual process also would be, and that would be on the maintainer for not providing an APT repository or a Flatpak, not on the user for just downloading from GitHub.

Why the OOP structure and syntax ? Sorry but it makes it difficult to read for me even in my own language 😅

I didn't know there was one, that's interesting, thanks.
Updates must still be delayed because of being third-party though.

I'd be willing to implement additional features for people who are extra careful about security.
Could you please explain what does this consist in ?
Thanks

Discord not automating downloads of DEBs is one of the reasons motivating me to do this.
Personally I need the desktop client because I mod it with plugins that are so useful that I can't do without these anymore.
Alternatively, there are third-party repositories here and here.
There still is delay between Discord releases and repository updates so I still believe dynapt to be the better solution.
On Debian-based distros, when an app is available as a DEB or an AppImage (that doesn't self-update), but no APT repository, PPA or Flatpak, the only option is to manually download each update, and usually manually check even whether there are updates. But, what if those would be upgraded at the same time as everything else using the tools you're familiar with ? dynapt is a local web server that fetches those DEBs (and AppImages to be wrapped into DEBs) wherever those are, then serves these to APT like any package repository does. I started building it a few months ago, and after using it to upgrade apps on my computers and servers for some time, I pre-released it for the first time last week. - [Source code](https://git.kaki87.net/KaKi87/dynapt) - [Experimental tutorial](https://gist.github.com/KaKi87/f620788e9901abbfef4978eb7ad358b4) The stable version will come with a CLI wizard to avoid this manual configuration. Feedback is welcome :)
Hi, On KDE neon 6 using Wayland, OBS 30.1.2 is black when trying "Screen Capture (PipeWire)" or "Window Capture (PipeWire)", when launching from terminal, the following line stands out : > error: [pipewire] Error retrieving pipewire fd: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying When asking the OBS community, I'm told : > Sounds like a broken PipeWire and/or xdg-desktop-portal install. That would be a question for your distro's support channels What to do ? Thanks --- **SOLVED :** the `xdg-desktop-portal` package crashes since v1.18.3 (see [issue report](https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/issues/1330)), so downgrading it fixes this.
Qu'est-ce que ça apporte de le faire ? Qu'est-ce que ça apporte de ne pas le faire ? Merci.
Is that possible ? Thanks
Hi, > KDE neon is a Linux distribution built on top of the latest Ubuntu LTS release (22.04 at the moment) > > — [KDE neon](https://neon.kde.org/faq) Since 22.04 no longer is the latest Ubuntu LTS, is KDE neon now based on 24.04, or is it still based on 22.04 ? It would be nice to have this info in *About this System*, so we wouldn't be in doubt. Thanks
Since it just checked for updates already, hence the notification... Thanks
Hi, How to make code folding buttons appear not only at start of blocks, but also at end of blocks, like the following in JetBrains ?  Thanks
Hi, After offline updates, KDE neon shows the GRUB menu, despite being otherwise disabled. How to prevent that ? Thanks

Plop, Fin 2020, j'avais tenté de créer, via la communauté Reddit francophone, une communauté consistant à permettre aux personnes en télétravail de se retrouver en vocal pendant les heures de bureau, non pas pour parler, ou seulement légèrement, mais pour se tenir compagnie, se motiver mutuellement en synchronisant notre rythme de travail et de pause, autrement dit, recréer une atmosphère de bureau sympa. Malheureusement, ça n'a tenu que quelques jours, après quoi plus personne ne venait, ça s'est donc arrêté. Qui voudrait retenter ici ?
Hi, *Maliit* is selected in virtual keyboard settings, it shows up when using a KDE app like Dolphin or Konsole, but it doesn't show up when using a non-KDE app like VLC or Discord. How to fix this ? Thanks
Plop, Est-ce que le TOTP est sans danger à utiliser sur Lemmy depuis le temps ou toujours pas ? Merci

Hello, Firefox has a [profiles](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles) feature, but isn't easy to use like Chromium's. As it fits LivreWolf's goal, it would be nice to improve this feature's usability for end users. Please upvote my [feature request on Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/librewolf/issues/issues/1696) if you agree. Thanks
