With all due respect, sandboxes leak. That the e install is not
natively tied in to the rest of Debian, can lead to problems.

I was unable to get a current version under the stable release, so I

I am stuck with the flatpak version until Debian roles out the version
I need and then, I pray that once I export again, it will import
without another blow up. I honestly do not understand about the
comment, "Milan has given you all the information you need to
