## **Maintaining flatpak package `org.getmonero.Monero`**
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
I have been maintaining `org.getmonero.Monero` on Flathub since July 2021. Now I want to move its manifest to the [monero-gui](https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui) repository. The org.getmonero.Monero github repo which is now used to push files to flathub will be discontinued. The files will be built and pushed directly from the monero-gui repository. Users will then be able to compare the hashes of files on their machines to those from the monero-gui workflow run. We can then give Monero-gui flatpak app a "verified" checkmark. This is an optional step for the community to decide at a later date. Flatpak installs will still remain 3rd-party and users are encouraged to confirm hashes, as they are with any other package repository.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to this, users will be able to trust this flatpak package more.
|
|
|
|
## Installing and using
|
|
|
|
The `org.getmonero.Monero` flatpak package is a good replacement for ordinary packages in GNU/Linux distributions, for example it can be used in Whonix to [replace](https://forums.whonix.org/t/how-to-verify-the-monero-binaries-that-are-shipped-with-whonix/16439/10) the Debian package.
|
|
|
|
At first you have to [setup flatpak](https://flatpak.org/setup) with Flathub repository on your GNU/Linux distribution. After that, run this command:
|
|
```
|
|
$ flatpak install flathub org.getmonero.Monero
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default, `org.getmonero.Monero` has access only to the `~/Monero` directory, if you need more, do it:
|
|
```
|
|
$ flatpak --user override --filesystem=/path_to_your_directory org.getmonero.Monero
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Some people need access to the `monerod` command:
|
|
```
|
|
$ flatpak run --command=monerod org.getmonero.Monero [options|settings] [daemon_command...]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## About me
|
|
|
|
I am [BigmenPixel](https://github.com/BigmenPixel0), who maintains Monero GUI on Flathub and some packages in the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/account/BigmenPixel).
|
|
|
|
### Milestone 1 (3.5XMR)
|
|
|
|
Move the manifest to the [monero-gui](https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui) repository.
|
|
|
|
### Milestone 2 (6.5XMR)
|
|
|
|
1 year of maintenance to be paid quarterly @1.63XMR after performance review (updates are ready in a timely manner / critical issues solved).
|
|
|
|
These rates are based off of the previous [debian package maintenance](https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/adrelanos-debian-package.html) proposal.
