Hi all! I’m pretty new to Manjaro, but I have experience with a few other Linux distributions, Ubuntu primarily, so I’m excited to be here.
I’d like to install a screen-sharing program called pop.com
, but I’ve been having no luck so far.
When I search for it in pamac desktop program with the terms “pop
”, “pop.com
” and “screen.so
” - which is pop.com
's old name - it doesn’t seem to turn up, even if I enable AUR, Snap and Flatpak support.
When I go to pop.com
's own download page, it gives me a .deb for Debian derivatives and a .rpm for Fedora derivatives.
I’ve heard of something in the Manjaro space called “debtap” for installing .deb files, but I understand that its use is strongly discouraged - I suppose for the same reason that installing from vetted repositories is strongly encouraged by all Linux distributions?
I’m also aware that ArchLinux/Manjaro has something called PKGBUILD
, which has to do with how packages are built and distributed in the Manjaro world. But I’m unsure if I’d be able to create such a package myself.
Any advice on how I can get pop.com
running on my computer, or any other thoughts?
