Description of problem: I took the liberty of packaging Syncthing for Mageia 7. It installs just fine and runs as well, however I can't seem to find any menu entry created so I had to run it from a terminal window. Don't know if it's due to a missing desktop file when building the package, but it might be a cause. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.4-rc.1
Here are every package I built for syncthing: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1vkv9z2Z1MGGvb2ttG-BNyiY8KPmFXFxt That also includes the src.rpm with the spec file inside of it. Can someone please push this to at least Cauldron?
Thank you for your interest & work on this. We already have at least rsync & freefilesync. What advantages does syncthing offer? Please give a URL for the project site. Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might, if there are no license or other legal issues, want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes. You Kristoffer might also want to join the packager team to maintain this piece of software: see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager

Unfortunately this is likely not supportable. We've already had to drop this package. It was a badly packaged and unmaintainable package and the software was apparently a mess of bundled nodejs stuff. Apparently there is an AppImage of it which should work fine.
