NZBget Package Request

Description

Package Request

Package Name : NZBget

Homepage : http://nzbget.net/

Why? There are no modern packages in the repo that provide Usenet download automation. (Pan offers reading articles and headers but its not practical for downloading)

The package is open source.

Amount of estimated users : Usenet is widely used in all OS's so I would guess 1k + with the popularity of Solus growing.

Link to source : https://github.com/nzbget/nzbget/releases/download/v18.0/nzbget-18.0-src.tar.gz

This is an alternate to SABnzbd so if this one isnt possible I can set a request for that package.

Thanks so much for taking my request!

Rejected under the Server software section of our Package Inclusion Policy. From what I can determine, NZBget merely creates a local web server and exposes a web UI, and as such web server is not used for "local development", it falls under Anything outside of these may be catered to by the usage of Docker, or other container technology. Thus, container technology must be supported by Solus to support access to ancillary cases..
