SHA256SUMS.txtfrom the same release. - The iOS IPA is intended for development, testing, and managed distribution. Most users should install the App Store build.
- DEB packages target Debian-family distributions. Use the TAR.GZ archive on other distributions and integrate it using that distribution’s desktop conventions.
