Infrastructure

Known issues

• Installation to removable devices is currently disabled due to #200
• We currrently need to use quarterly rather than release_X packages because
  • On 12.2 installation fails with release_2 packages
  • On 12.2 releasing the mouse over a menu does not work release_2 packages
  • appmenu-gtk-module is not available in release_2 packages and installation from GH Releases can fail with SSH Authentication Error
    Using quarterly packages is not ideal because unlike the name suggests, they can change and even disappear throughout the quarter, preventing builds from succeeding. As soon as release_3 packages are available, we should switch to those
