Bug report

If I install Inkdrop as a .deb package and click ā€œupdateā€ in the update window, the update window should either take me to the download link or download .deb automatically. It shouldnā€™t automatically start the download of the .zip version of the software.

I donā€™t have a RPM-supporting VM at the moment, so I canā€™t say if the same is true for the RPM version as well.

Info

  • Platform: Ubuntu
  • Platform version: 17.10
  • App Version: Stable-1 (last happened with with 3.15.0)

Reproduce

  1. Install Inkdrop from the .deb package.
  2. Wait for the update to come.
  3. From the update window, click on ā€œupdateā€.
  4. Notice that your default browser started the download of the .zip version instead of .deb.

Hi Aleksandar,

Thanks for the suggestion.
I understand opening a url to a zip file is not useful.
However it canā€™t determine which package system is being used on your system.
So Iā€™d like to change it to open the download page instead.

Thanks!

As of v3.17.0, it will open the download page when you click ā€œDownloadā€ button on the update window.
Thanks for the report!
