Thanks! hmmm, the website should probably say gtk4 is required too... In the 
source code, i'm just importing owlkettle and other nim deps, and calling rsync 
and pkexec via execCmdEx(). The Supporter Release has pre-compiled binaries for 
x86_64 glibc-based distros, along with desktop integration stuff, and a gui 
installer (shown in video on EZ Bkup website) and a couple bash scripts for 
debian-based distros until they update their polkit later this year, at which 
time the GUI installer should work. I will add a binary for Alpine to the 
Supporter Release when they update nim to 2.0 in the repos, or i build my own 
package for it. The installer/bash scripts just copy all the files where they 
go, or removes them all when uninstalling. The source code of EZ Bkup itself is 
released under the GPLv3, so users with distros not covered by the Supporter 
Release can still compile their own binary, though some external/supplemental 
niceties are omitted, like desktop integration icons, polkit policy, etc.

I hope that answers your question.
