lastly, it should be noted that jami is already packaged by

common for windows/mac software; the downlaods page for *nixes

packages - for example:

* debian/ubuntu/mint/trisquel/etc/etc users: `apt install jami`

One reason for preferring packages from Jami would be that (at least for Debian) the packages are not up-to-date. For example in Debian testing there's version 20210112 (6 months old).
