Winget Install

Open Patarimi opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I use winget as a package manager for my CI and I write a (local) manifest for KLayout. It is available here. If it is useful to others, we could add it to the official repo. What do you think ?

Hi @Patarimi,

Thanks for providing this manifest. I actually did not know it is that easy.

Maybe you could correct the link for the package repo above is it contains the trailing square bracket.

I have no experience with winget myself. What obligations does providing a package come with? To be frank, I am not looking for becoming maintainer of another package. I have enough for myself. Would you take care of that?

Thanks,

Matthias

Hi @klayoutmatthias,

I use winget but I never provide package before. There is an assistant that help with in the creation, deployment and update of the package wingetcreate. It seems that the only thing to do is update the file with each new version. If it's just that, I think I can do it. :)

It's done. The pull request is here.

Thanks,
