+# Linux packaging
+
+VniDrop ships native x64 packages for the two common Linux package families:
+
+- Debian/Ubuntu: `.deb`
+- Current Fedora systems: `.rpm`
+
+Both packages contain the application, its release Rust library, and a private
+Java runtime. Users do not need to install Java separately. The packages are
+currently distributed as direct GitHub Release downloads, so they use SHA-256
+checksums rather than a Linux repository signing key. A future APT or RPM
+repository should add repository metadata signing and its own update channel.
+
+## GitHub Actions
+
+The Linux packages workflow runs for relevant pull requests, release tags
+matching `vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`, and manual dispatches. Each native package is
+built and validated on its matching distribution family:
+
+- `.deb` on Ubuntu 22.04 for a conservative glibc baseline
+- `.rpm` inside Fedora 43 so `jpackage` can discover normal RPM dependencies
+
+The shared JVM suite runs inside the Debian build job. Package construction and
+payload validation happen in both build jobs, so there is no separate test
+runner. Pull requests build and verify both packages but do not retain
+artifacts. Manual runs retain build artifacts for 14 days. A pushed version tag
+whose commit is on `master` creates the matching GitHub Release with the `.deb`,
+`.rpm`, and a combined `SHA256SUMS`.
+
+The existing `v1.0.0` tag predates this workflow and will not run it
+retroactively. Use the next version tag after this configuration reaches
+`master`.
+
+## Install a downloaded package
+
+Verify downloads from the directory containing all three release files:
+
+```bash
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
+```
+
+On Debian or Ubuntu:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install ./vnidrop_VERSION-1_amd64.deb
+```
+
+On Fedora:
+
+```bash
+sudo dnf install ./vnidrop-VERSION-1.x86_64.rpm
+```
+
+The package manager installs declared system-library dependencies and creates
+the VniDrop desktop launcher. Uninstall with `sudo apt remove vnidrop` or
+`sudo dnf remove vnidrop`.
+
+## Manual native builds
+
+Use JDK 21 and Rust 1.91. Build DEB packages on Debian/Ubuntu with `dpkg` and
+`fakeroot`; build RPM packages on Fedora with `rpm-build`. Building an RPM on
+Ubuntu prevents `jpackage` from discovering normal RPM dependencies.
+
+From the repository root on the matching Linux family, run one of:
+
+```bash
+./gradlew :shared:jvmTest :desktopApp:packageReleaseDeb \
+  -Pvnidrop.version=1.0.0 \
+  -Pvnidrop.desktop.rustVariant=release \
+  -Pvnidrop.diagnostics.included=false \
+  --no-daemon --no-configuration-cache --stacktrace
+
+./gradlew :shared:jvmTest :desktopApp:packageReleaseRpm \
+  -Pvnidrop.version=1.0.0 \
+  -Pvnidrop.desktop.rustVariant=release \
+  -Pvnidrop.diagnostics.included=false \
+  --no-daemon --no-configuration-cache --stacktrace
+```
+
+Compose writes the packages under
+`desktopApp/build/compose/binaries/main-release/deb/` and
+`desktopApp/build/compose/binaries/main-release/rpm/`. The workflow then
+validates package identity, version, architecture, dependencies, bundled JVM,
+and release Rust payload before publishing anything.
