Huh. I don’t know enough about Flatpak, I guess repo owners get to make that call? Do Flatpaks have a preinst equivalent? Could you theoretically have an empty Flatpak that installs snaps at a system level? I guess it would need explicit permission to write to the filesystem, which kinda seems to be the opposite of the purpose of Flatpak.
And like, even if that is possible, the Flathub maintainers would probably reject it on principle. So I’m imagining CanHub with an extra step in the installation instructions that gets you to pipe a curl’d script into sh, at which point, what’s the point?




Probably have better luck if you try yay -Syu instead
