Re: What are the plans for bwrap and flatpak?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



If I would be in the place of decision (but I don't), I would choose
the way of "apps" - that we all know, after many mobile solutions. If
we are able to catch with some of this process of like these, we'll
achieve amazing mobility, and flexibility that includes atomic too.
But IMHO I think as a user the question is very good: witch path we
take? We have to still use RPM in future? Do we get one click
install/remove apps, and app repository, or a mixed bag? Where will
appear the gnome extensions? In packages, or in somekind of framework?

I'm not 100% convinced on flatpak, but it keeps improving. Anyway I think both projects have completely separate (though compatible) goals and might need to be handled separately. Now I am curious:
