Well, keep in mind that I asked "what do you want?", not necessarily "what easy things could we do?". The comment I referred to was: Background updates – don't prompt me unless it's a breaking change; do it over night, lunch, any time I'm not actually using the app/library. For a lot of updates, we could probably do this reasonably well even without Flatpak. *With* Flatpak, I think the story becomes a lot easier. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
