Your Download for Linux button downloads a .deb file. As I'm sure you're aware these are only usable on Debian based distros. I would suggest adding an rpm package to the Downloads page and have the Download for Linux to link to the download page. Not only is this more accurate but you're making your software more easily accessible for Linux users by not having them run a script.

    A RPM package is available from the Moneydance repository.

    Oh, nice! You might want to consider adding it to the website so it's more visible. Thanks!

    Is this link easily findable on the site somewhere, because I've done some searching and can't find it. Maybe adding this to the Downloads page would make it easier for people to find if adding the RPM package is too much. I'm just trying to help make the software more accessible to new Linux users.
