Bug-free, fully translated software that never needs to be upgraded is pretty rare. The approach we support currently is adding new APT sources in a persistent manner (perhaps in the future we'll support Flatpak remotes similarly but we're not there yet). I don't know how well this support works in practice (due to lack of feedback). But setting up and maintaining an APT repo may not be that much less work than having the software in Debian proper. YMMV :) _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to [email protected].
