Bug Description
I recently switched to EndeavourOS (Arch Linux) for development and noticed that Claude Desktop isn't available for Arch-based distributions.
I think there is a large enough community of developers using Arch Linux that an official release would be worthwhile. Since many developers prefer Arch and its derivatives for development work, native support would be appreciated.
If Claude Desktop were open source, I could build it myself, but since it isn't, I'm limited to the platforms you officially support.
I also use Claude CLI, which works well, but there are times when a graphical interface is much more convenient. It would be great if you could consider providing an official Arch Linux package in the future.
