Harald Sitter reportson a discussion at recent sprint focused on making Snap packaging usefulfor KDE. "Shipping things users can use on Linux has been a pain in the rearsince forever and these bundles are meant to change that. As such weas KDE should have a strong interest and presence in this field in thehopes of shaping a future that is useful to us. After all, we are oneof the biggest source distributors, and the primary reason we don'talso offer generic binary packages of our applications is because thisnever scaled and was altogether terrible to pull off from a KDE pointof view." He and Scarlett Clark are working on somehigh level mass automation of snap building on top of KDE Neon's existingdeb binaries. (Thanks to Jos van den Oever)
