Package vs Binary

  • Packages: Automatic dependency resolution, system integration, desktop files
  • Binaries/AppImage: Portable, no installation required, manual dependency management

Installation Methods by Distribution

  • Debian/Ubuntu/Mint: Use .deb packages for best integration
  • Arch/Manjaro: Use AUR (yay -S yahac-bin)
  • Other distributions: Use AppImage first, then portable binaries or build from source

If you test yahac on other distributions, please report compatibility at #36.
