Electron-Updater downloads the new package to ~/.cache/vesktop-updater/pending/vesktop-1.5.4.x86_64.rpm and installs it.
Then, the ~/.cache/vesktop-updater/pending directory remains on disk afterwards, wasting space forever, for no good reason.
This problem seemingly affects every platform because I saw the same issue on Windows mentioned here: #8073
Please consider erasing the pending directory after installing updates. It saves disk space. A simple algorithm for this would literally just be "if the update check doesn't find any updates, erase pending dir on disk since there's nothing new to fetch".
