Request alias for just-an-installer

  • name: just-an-installer
  • description: A tool that can be used to install binaries in a reliable way by specifying the location and SHA-256.
  • snapcraft: https://github.com/rikhuijzer/jas/blob/main/pkg/snapcraft.template.yaml
  • aliases:
    • jas: just-an-installer.jas
    • reasoning: Making jas available would be more consistent with the name that becomes available when installing via cargo since cargo install jas (https://crates.io/crates/jas) makes the binary available as jas. This would allow the use of jas in scripts and local development and (Ubuntu) CI.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no existing snap alias already granted or a well-known Linux application conflicting with the aliases requested here.

This request has been added to the queue for review by the @reviewers team.

As far as I’m aware, there is no snap using jas so it makes sense to grant the alias for just-an-installer, +1 from me. #voteFor
