Package manager support on arm64 Linux distributions

Can we get actual support for delivering 1Password releases using proper repositories and native package archive types recognized by the package managers on arm64 variants of Linux distributions? At least the big ones: Ubuntu [deb], Fedora/Redhat/SUSE [rpm]

It's been ages since support for running 1password on arm64 Linux was delivered. Initially, in the forums 1Password staff said these releases weren't hosted in proper repositories and packaged because of toolchain issues with packaging up releases. Understandable initially, but approaching inexcusable at this point. It's tedious and annoying to have to do the manual downloads and installs of update gzips release after release.

The arm64 version of the app doesn't even notify users that a new release is available, to trigger them to go through the manual tedium to stay up to date. Which seems at odds with 1Password's otherwise strong commitment to keeping users up to date and secure.

    Thank you for the feedback and I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused.  While I don't have any updates to share about efforts in this area at the moment, this is something that our team continues to discuss internally and hopefully we will be able to add it to the product release roadmap in the future.
