Hello all, Congratulations on the great release!
I'm one of the developers responsible for snapd at Canonical ( https://snapcraft.io), and would just like to let you know that on Ubuntu or other Linux distributions that accept classic snaps, installing 2.79 may now be done with: sudo snap install --classic blender This works on any of the latest Ubuntu releases, and the installed binaries are the exact ones made available in the downloads page (IOW, it was not rebuilt as typical for deb packages). The 2.80 release is also available via the --channel=edge command line flag. As a regular Blender user, I'm a fan of your work. Thanks, and keep it up!
