Has anyone looked into creating a snap for Julia?
There are people creating a Debian package, but I feel because all of the various Julia binary dependencies, a Julia snap would be great. (I’m missing the time and the Linux packaging foundation to do this on my own).
Currently there is a “julia-stable” snap, but its not up-to-date (its 1.0.0 but 1.0.3/1.1.0 is available). I would be surprised if it is going to be a supported language anytime soon.
I’ve created a snap of recent version. The problem is that julia needs classic confinement, so the snap is not available in store yet until it is reviewed by a human and the request for classic confinement is approved.
In the meanwhile, you can use my snapcraft.yml to build it yourself. At least julia will show up in package manager.
