A public apology regarding BassBoom v1.0 Launchpad PPA

When BassBoom v1.0 was released, we had expected that this version of the music player would be available to all package managers in various platforms, such as WinGet for Windows, Launchpad PPA for Ubuntu, and other packaging methods for different systems.

However, a technical issue caused us to be unable to push the Ubuntu packages for this version of BassBoom, which made it unavailable for those who rely on our Ubuntu PPA to install BassBoom to their Ubuntu systems.

We sincerely apologize for the unavailability of the Launchpad PPA packages for BassBoom v1.0, but it was out of our control and we couldn’t solve it ourselves.

Today, we have made the BassBoom v1.0 package available in our Launchpad PPA, which you can check out here.

Additionally, we have finalized the support periods for future BassBoom versions, which you can find here.
