Why doesn't this seem to be in a release? The last release of the client was back in October: https://github.com/keybase/client/releases/tag/v1.0.18 https://git

It's in our released downloads at https://keybase.io/download https://keybase.io/download We don't use GitHub releases often.

  Is there another location for official source releases? The Nix expression [1] builds from source from GitHub releases, but it could easily be modified to point to an different address on the web to stay more up-to-date.

  https://keybase.io/download https://keybase.io/download just points back to github for source. You also haven't tagged anything more recent than that github release: https://github.com/keybase/client/tags https://github.com/keybase/client/tags If you're not tagging or doing github releases, is there a list of 'stable' versions that distros should consider packaging?
  - cjbprime 10y ago
    No, sorry. We're still making a new release almost every day, and we have no stable branches, only master. We'd prefer people to just install our own package.

      I would fully recommend against people installing packages from outside their distro. especially crypto related ones. Do you consider master stable? i.e. should we consider packaging every master commit?

      I don't suppose you could tell us where the version number comes from then? I looked at opt/keybase/version of the 'now' package (20170214-1250 UTC) you host for Linux x64 and it says v1.4.12. What is the git commit reference for that version?
