As for removal, I think it should easily be removable, as are most applications, in gnome-software. Short of a drag and drop application model, that's about as easy as it gets. -- Chris Murphy -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
