Please provide RPM

The default Linux download is just .deb....please provide an RPM as we all, please. Thank you.

I've never built an RPM before. I'm using launchpad to build .deb. Do you know of anything like that for rpm?

I looked around and people can build RPMs on Launchpad from a spec file

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-rpm1/

I believe the rpmbuild tool is available in Debian/Ubuntu to build RPMs from it

We've been working a service that integrates into Github for building linux packages every time you push a tag, which may ideal for this: https://bytepackager.com/.

Alright I have my first RPMs. They're of the older build but I'll update when the new one is ready. @jacek99 could you try it out? I don't have a machine to try it out on and I don't have time to setup a virtual machine right now. 64 bit: http://tytel.org/static/dist/helm_0.8.6-1039_amd64.rpm 32 bit: http://tytel.org/static/dist/helm_0.8.6-1039_i386.rpm

The asound dependency is wrong:

# dnf install helm_0.8.6-1039_amd64.rpm
