Feature Request: Provide RPM packages and Flatpak builds #8

Description

@mohammadayn

Summary

Currently, Linux distribution support is limited. Please consider adding official RPM packages (for Fedora, RHEL, openSUSE) and Flatpak builds (via Flathub) to make installation, sandboxing, and updates seamless across non-Debian distributions.

Motivation

  • Broader Reach: Users on Fedora, openSUSE, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS Stream, and other RPM-based systems currently lack a native package format.
  • Universal Linux Availability: Flatpak is distribution-agnostic and provides sandboxed runtime environments, making it ideal for desktop applications like Ohmail. It also simplifies deployment via Flathub.
  • Easier Updates: Integrating these formats into your CI/CD release workflow ensures automated updates for a larger portion of desktop Linux users without manual build steps.
