[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

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.
