# Claude Desktop. # # Anthropic ships macOS and Windows only. This is a community wrapper that # downloads the official build, bundles Electron, and packages the result as a # proper Fedora RPM -- so what lands on the system is still a package dnf owns # and can remove, which is the part of the dnf/flatpak rule that matters most. # # The exception it needs is the build itself. There is no RPM or flatpak of # Claude Desktop to install, so the choice is building one or not having it. # Nothing is pinned: the default branch is built every time, and a failure is # reported rather than worked around. sunhat pinned versions and every pin was # a 404 within a release cycle. description="Claude Desktop, built into a Fedora RPM" repo="https://github.com/dewzor/claude-desktop-fedora.git" # The upstream script installs its own build dependencies and prints the RPM it # produced.
