3 Looks like the deb downloads Chobby into /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/Zero-K/Chobby.exe and includes an icon and a shortcut. 3 Looks like the deb downloads Chobby into /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/Zero-K/Chobby.exe and includes an icon and a shortcut.

17 Also, if you use the icon name without full path, it allows icon themes to change the look of the icon, which is better than fixing it to the current icon. For example, people can make a monochrome icon for ZK in a theme without having to fight with the package. 17 Also, if you use the icon name without full path, it allows icon themes to change the look of the icon, which is better than fixing it to the current icon.

21 Chobby is able to download things, but obviously, Chobby will not be able to update itself since the binary is owned by root after install. One approach to fix this would be to have the /usr/bin/Zero-K script copy Chobby.exe from /usr/lib... to $HOME/Zero-K. Then each user will have the version of Chobby downloaded at install time to start with, and it will update itself separately for each user.
