Opened microsoft/winget-pkgs#118874

This is very cool, thanks @luzpaz

Downstream window binary repos are waiting for v0.26 to be released (chocolatey-community/chocolatey-package-requests#746 (comment)). Is there an ETA on release date ?

[gvnnz]

v0.26 will be released pretty soon, definitely by the end of September. 🤞

[luzpaz]

winget devs respond that they are unable to add giada for the following reason:

The package is released as a compressed ZIP file, with "loose executable" in it. For latest version of WinGet (currently v1.6), this kind of package is not supported.

WinGet is not intended for this kind of packages, Scoop or Chocolatey may be better.

Added request ticket to add Giada to Solus repo

[luzpaz]

There is a Solus maintainer interested 🤞

[luzpaz]

bumped freebsd, solus, and chocolatey tickets. Waiting for responses.

[luzpaz]

Can someone bump Debian repos so we can get latest Giada in to the experimental repo at least ?
