       Should Inkscape have an update phone-homeatron that checks for new versions?I ask because, I don't wanna, but it's often requested. It feels like "writing your own date parser" in terms of "I really shouldn't be the one doing this"But it does bridge to our linux users who are often cut off from having a direct relationship with the project.#inkscape #foss #opensouorce

       @TerryHancock @doctormo Launchpad (from Canonical) allows anyone to create their own repo with their own debs in it; it’s called a Personal Package Archive or PPA. I think developers providing newer versions than Ubuntu’s is the usual use-case. Apt automatically takes the highest version, so if your sources.list includes upstream’s PPA, you get updates.
