It bundles its own Chromium runtime, registers the claude:// +URL scheme handler, and provides desktop actions for starting a new +chat or a new Claude Code session. + +This is a binary repack of Anthropic's official Debian package pulled +from the Anthropic apt repository +(https://downloads.claude.ai/claude-desktop). No build from source is +performed. The package is x86_64 only and installs to roughly 480 MB. + +The Debian package's apt-repository registration and AppArmor userns +profile are Debian/Ubuntu specific and are not reproduced here. +Chromium's SUID sandbox helper (chrome-sandbox) is shipped setuid root +so the sandbox works without --no-sandbox. + +There are no SBo dependencies: the Debian runtime dependencies (gtk3, +nss, notify, atspi, drm, gbm, secret, xtst, xdg-utils, +xdg-desktop-portal) are all satisfied by a stock Slackware install, and +Chromium's own libraries are bundled inside the package. + + +NVCHECKER +--------- +An nvchecker configuration file is installed alongside this README at: + + /usr/doc/claude-desktop-bin-VERSION/claude-desktop-bin.nvchecker + +nvchecker (https://github.com/lilydjwg/nvchecker) is a tool for checking +new versions of software.
