[Slackbuilds-users] Legacy Signal-Desktop to be retired

[David O'Shaughnessy]

Just a heads up that the Signal-Desktop SlackBuild (not signal-desktop)

After 380 days of extended support, the legacy Chrome version of
Signal Desktop will stop working on November 15, 2018. The new
standalone version of Signal Desktop is available now, and it has
received regular updates in the past year -- including numerous
feature enhancements and significant performance improvements.

https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/releases/tag/v0.47.0

There's a built-in tool in the final release (0.47.0) to migrate from
legacy to the new stand-alone version (the signal-desktop binary
SlackBuild). So Signal-Desktop should probably be updated and the README
too to reflect the situation.

I've cc'd the maintainer.
