From b25cf3f0d03a59a3b3740b04244a02675c00e55c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicola Smaniotto Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2021 10:40:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Add Linux installation info (#103) * Add Linux installation info Add a repology badge and mention the possibility to install via the package manager. I believe this is a better approach than explicitly mentioning a repository, because it uses repology's database (and the list will remain updated). * use tiny badge The big badge is too big and could overflow in the following section. The tiny one will keep the same size as new packages are added. --- README.md | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 376adcc..c1243bf 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -63,6 +63,10 @@ Install devel packages for `SDL2` and `SDL2_mixer`.\ Compile with CMake; tested with GCC 10, Clang 11.\ To cross-compile for Windows, install a 64-bit version of mingw and its `SDL2` and `SDL2_mixer` distributions, then use the `mingwcc.cmake` toolchain. +[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/tiny-repos/spacecadetpinball.svg)](https://repology.org/project/spacecadetpinball/versions) + +Some distributions provide a package in their repository.
