The runtime could be all of /use and the app could be a symlink living in /app that points at /usr. The latter could be created on the fly in a tmpfs. Or the flatpak runtime could learn to accept a special type of manifest that just says to run /usr/bin/whatever and not worry about /app. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
