  Why are there two identically named .deb packages for Simplenote v2.23.2?
  Does anyone know, or care to venture a guess?

  https://github.com/Automattic/simplenote-electron/releases/tag/v2.23.2

  Simplenote-linux-2.23.2-amd64.deb @ 138 MB

  Simplenote-linux-2.23.2-amd64.deb @ 142 MB

  Thank You,
  Bursey

  Hi Bursey,

  Thanks for asking. Have you tried download any/both of them? Can you confirm which one works for you and what Linux distro and version you’re using?

  Hi, Has there been a deletion since the post? The two files in the list now are amd64 and arm64.

  Thanks

  I’m not seeing that the versions released for 2.32.2 have changed at all. If there was a need to make a change like this, though, we would do so as a new release version in GitHub that corrected the assets available.

  Thanks, So no record of two amd64 files.

  I asked because I saw the original post. I installed the software successfully on one installation and not another a couple of days later.

  Must be hardware differences.

  Thanks again

  Hi @burseblades and @arthurpye25,

  Since the original question regarding the two identically named .deb packages appears to be addressed, I’ll mark this thread as resolved.

  However, if you have any additional questions about this, please feel free to reopen this thread.
