This release updates the packaging process for Red Hat-based distributions, similar to what we did in 2.4.1 Linux RC2 for Debian-based distributions. This was necessary to address the sandboxing issue outlined in #222, and we've moved the app from being installed in /opt/GitHub Desktop/ to /usr/lib/github-desktop/.
This was an opportunity to also add support for the github command line using a symlink, and add some additional dependencies that the user may not have installed.
