A Snap Package for DuckDB

This repository contains the source code for building a Snap package (called a snap) from the latest stable release of DuckDB.

I made this package to make it easier to install DuckDB on different GNU/Linux distributions like Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc. and to keep it up-to-date. Currently, the package is built for the amd64 architecture only.

Note that this is an unofficial Snap package for DuckDB.

Please use the Issues page to report bugs.

Installation

# Install the Snap package from the Snap Store
sudo snap install duckdb --stable

# Run the commands below if you encounter permission errors while using the DuckDB shell

sudo snap install snapcraft --classic
