I'm glad to hear it. I have a tendency to hyperbole in this noisy
world.

I interpreted this as such a death knell. I think if it's not required,
it's on its way out. It is a short step from there to
F31: packagers of graphical applications must create Flatpacks of their
applications, and standard RPM packaging will not be allowed for
such applications.
That said, flatpaks might turn out to be the greatest thing since
sliced bread, and they certainly have their use cases, as described by
contributors to this thread. In ten years, maybe everyone will be
using flatpak equivalent technology, and I'll be just another luddite
has been.
