flatpak app launch script

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

 



Hi,

I feel that launching a flatpak app from command line a bit regression from rpm packages. It's really different to type:

$firefox

or

$flatpak run org.mozilla.Firefox

Especially when "flatpak run org.mozilla" carries no information for user, they just want to launch the app and don't care if that's rpm, flatpak, snap or whatever. The ALT+F2 is affected too by this.

And why to care about about command line anyway? I think we should match it with existing rpm system as much as possible.

To match flatpak usability with rpm packages, can there be a launch script (say in /var/lib/flatpak/bin to keep it consistent) like we have in /usr/bin? I expect that launch script should be owned by flatpak app, optional.

Thoughts?
Ma.
