Neither Ubuntu packages haven't been updated nor the official PPA. The latest version of Ubuntu mentioned is .. 19.04 .. so I think the page hasn't been updated in ages.

I guess maybe it works if you build from source? But last I checked it was a hairball with build scripts



It will totally work if you build from source ^^

I use this https://code.wildfiregames.com/P241 but basically you need only this after cloning and installing deps

cd build/workspaces && sh update-workspaces.sh -j4 cd gcc && make -j4

There is no rush. I will wait for the AppImage to get published. It's just the release links to Linux downloads are broken and I thought someone in charge will see it

Btw am I reading it correctly - you guys are still on Subversion? and no CMake? but you're using C++17. What a weird combo of old and new :)


We use Arcanist + Phabricator, but main repo is SVN yes. We also have two git mirrors.

We use Premake5 instead of CMake, for historical reasons. an attempt was made at Meson but it was too messy on Windows.

We only switched to C++17 because Mozilla's SpiderMonkey headers required us to. Else we'd still be at C++11


The snap was updated on the 10th of December 2020, so expect the latwst version to show up there.
