Hello! It's possible I have a similar issue running Ubuntu MATE 18.04 and attempting to add Etcher using Software Boutique.

When I select Etcher, I notice it appears to be the old Etcher referenced, including no mention of Balena.io.

When I attempt to update my sources in Fixes>Update Sources List, I am receiving a GPG error:

Lastly, if I attempt to install the older package anyway, I receive a package-not-available error:

As I said, I'm not totally sure that this is related to the Debian repo issue per se, but I assumed that this would be a good place to start with a comment and see where we should go. If you'd prefer I open up a new issue, let me know.

Thank you! I :heart: Etcher and I appreciate all that you are doing with the project!

As part of the switch from resin to balena, I think the repo URL and GPG keys changed also (I tripped over this myself). I think the fix is to delete any existing resin or etcher related repos from your software sources, and re-follow the steps in https://github.com/balena-io/etcher#debian-and-ubuntu-based-package-repository-gnulinux-x86x64

And WRT to the original issue, AFAICT balena-etcher-electron 1.4.9 is still the latest version published to the DEB repository.

Now that you have released a stable version of Etcher 1.5.19 can you please add it to the deb repo? Some of us Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora users prefer to use repos. Thanks.
