Nix packages it: https://nixos.org/nixos/packages.html#brave https://nixos.org/nixos/packages.html#brave , which means you could use the Nix stand-alone package manager to install it on top of any distro. (I just tried this and am typing this from Brave, installed via the Nix stand-alone package manager running in Void Linux.)
- bubblethink 7y agoIt's fetching brave's binary. That's not what I meant by packaging. src = fetchurl { url = "https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/releases/download/v${version}/brave-browser_${version}_amd64.deb"; https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/releases/download/v${... sha256 = "1lbajxnxqkd422rckfjm65pwwzl66v7anq4jrzxi29d5x7abl3c1"; }; Also, bad look for nixos. I was curious about nixos too, but it'll have to be debian and fedora for now.
- _emacsomancer_ 7y agoFair point, though I don't know what would go into properly packaging Brave. They certainly don't package Brave in any fashion, but if you were curious about NixOS, you might look at Guix System.
