Bug#767418: Packaging Telegram Desktop
Ahoi!

On the other side it's probably illegal to distribute any binaries from that.

Thanks Cristoph, On the other side it's probably illegal to distribute any binaries from that. GPLv3 (no exceptions) + OpenSSL don't go together very well So we can not make native packages for Telegram... What about a script that download binary files and install it according to FHS? -- Saludos, Roberto De Oliveira
