[opensuse-kubic] MicroOS Desktop & flatpack via GNOME-Software
Hello, I recently re-installed MicroOS, picking up the 'Desktop GNOME' variant, and all was fine during install. Yay! :-D After that, I went in 'GNOME Software' and tried to install something, but, apparently (unless it's me having done something wrong), it still default to rpm/zypper and, of course, it fails. I have the following notes (IIRC, from a previous post on this mailing list): # rm -Rf /var/cache/app-info # transactional-update shell # rpm -e --nodeps libzypp-plugin-appdata # zypper al libzypp-plugin-appdata # exit # reboot then: $ gsettings set org.gnome.software install-bundles-system-wide false $ gsettings set org.gnome.software allow-updates false $ gsettings set org.gnome.software download-updates false $ gsettings set org.gnome.software enable-software-sources false [*] $ gsettings set org.gnome.software first-run true $ flatpak remote-add --user --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo [*] this does not seem to exist in my config... there's a enable-repos- dialog, not sure it's the same/equivalent. I did all that, and I know can install flatpack stuff with, e.g.: flatpak install flathub org.gimp.GIMP But if go to 'GNOME Software', I don't see anything (i.e., "No Application Data Found"). I don't even see the apps that I've manually installed via flatpack in a terminal in the 'installed' tab. So, what am I doing wrong? :-) Thanks and Regards -- Dario Faggioli, Ph.D http://about.me/dario.faggioli Virtualization Software Engineer SUSE Labs, SUSE https://www.suse.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- <<This happens because _I_ choose it to happen!>> (Raistlin Majere)

Actually, I'm pleased to report that things actually work. I guess I did something wrong back then. But now, I've done all these (in fresh installs) three times, and it always worked fine. So, sorry for the noise. -- Dario Faggioli, Ph.D http://about.me/dario.faggioli Virtualization Software Engineer SUSE Labs, SUSE https://www.suse.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- <<This happens because _I_ choose it to happen!>> (Raistlin Majere)
