Hi all, just a simple question: Why Librewolf is not packaged in Debian? It's a pity I have to add external repos or run the appimage. Cheers!

"deb-get list" shows all that are available. Perhaps not available for your Distro? What are you running?

I am using debian testing I wrote deb-get librewolf but it says it cannot find it

"sudo deb-get install librewolf" ?

I am using Debian 11 and recent Ubuntu.

Will it mess with my debian repos?

lt will add the fitting Librewolf repo and will use regular apt for updates.

In that case I prefer using the appimage. The only thing is that I have to manually update it or use some tool. It would be cool if deb-get would fetch the .deb file from the repo without adding repos to my sources.list file and managing your deb files obtained that way automatically like apt
