I don't think adding Webex is viable 😞

The .deb is only available via direct download, and the version number of the package is not available anywhere. Something get-deb requires so it knows when an update is available, by comparing the installed .deb with some vendor published version number on their website.

The other option is if Webex has an apt repository, but it does not. I've unpacked the .deb and it doesn't include any postinst scripts or cron jobs to setup an apt repository.

we know the version from examining the deb, It is currently 42.4.0.21893

If we update deb-get when the next version comes out, users will still know to update as the number will be higher

Would it be too much processing to read the version from the .deb file itself?

ar p Webex.deb control.tar.gz | tar xzOf - ./control | grep Version

[charles-hood]

I think we could pattern it after the existing deb_gitkraken() function, except get the version from inside the .deb instead of the name

function deb_gitkraken() { VERSION_PUBLISHED="$(curl -s "https://www.gitkraken.com/download/linux-deb" | grep "name: '" | cut -d"'" -f2)" URL="https://release.gitkraken.com/linux/gitkraken-amd64.deb" PRETTY_NAME="GitKraken" WEBSITE="https://www.gitkraken.com/invite/ieih1QR3" }
