I don't need to support Linux at the moment, but I'd definitely take pull requests for this! A rough sketch of tasks:

• support building for Linux — see if adding the appropriate platform/arch object to Meteor.settings.electron.build just works
• support setting the app icon on Linux — will need to be handled differently than for Mac/Windows, see https://github.com/maxogden/electron-packager 's README
• support downloading the Linux app - probably just a matter of parsing the download URL here but I don't have a sense of what that looks like (is it an installer like on Windows, or a (zipped form of?) the app itself like on Mac?)
• support remote updates

On the last note, I've heard that Electron's auto-updater framework doesn't actually support Linux—it's recommended that you update the app just via the system package manager. In that case, I don't know if there's anything for meteor-electron to do, I'd just want to document this in its README.
