I think "App" in this context means what flatpack (and all its spiritual predecessors) is currently trying to address: No need to wrangle with installing packages, no ending up in dependency hell, grab latest version of something and just run it. > So let's turn those attacks around! Let's remind people that the > distros' package systems are right way to distribute applications and > GNOME works with those package systems. Except the normal user gives shit about packaging systems. And why things not work if he grabs some piece of software from some random place. Things should just work. There should not be "I cannot run Frobnicator 2k because my system has libfurb packaged in version 0.8, but Frobnicator needs 0.9 so I also need to get that from somewhere" _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
