Nix and Snap packages are available for OpenRA too

[fusion809]

Hi,

The download page presently mentions the availability of AppImage and Flatpak packages for OpenRA, but there are two cross-distro package formats that were missed: Nix and Snap. Packages for the latest stable release (20180307) are presently available in both formats, hence they seem to be kept fairly up-to-date.

The Nix package can be installed with the command:

nix-env -i openra

(which by-the-way doesn't need root privileges! Although the initial installation of the Nix package manager itself requires root privileges).

The Snap package is installed with:

sudo snap install openra

Thanks for your time,
Brenton
