 Adrien Plazas | Greetings from Fractal on Flatpak | 14:18:39 |
 Alexandre Franke | OMGOMGOMGOMG | 14:25:32 |
| * Alexandre Franke rushes to flathub. | 14:25:37 |
| Adrien Plazas | Remember the time when we had to wait for some packager to package software for your specific distro and hope their won't be dependencies mismatches which will break either the software or your distro? | 16:15:47 |
 alatiera | huh, with flatpak there is no App Icon for me | 16:37:51 |
| Alexandre Franke | Adrien Plazas: now we just have to wait for flathub reviewers to accept the PR. | 16:43:41 |
| * Alexandre Franke sighs. | 16:43:42 |
| Adrien Plazas | Alexandre Franke: I admit I'm not super fond of this either… | 17:33:16 |
 HER0 | But you don't have to do that. You could always host your own repo. | 17:34:22 |
| * Alexandre Franke sighs again. | 17:37:37 |
| Alexandre Franke | Have you seen that foundation-list thread? | 17:37:44 |
| HER0 | Nope! | 17:39:30 |
| Alexandre Franke | https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2017-November/msg00043.html | 17:40:23 |
| Alexandre Franke | d-d-l sorry | 17:40:27 |
| Adrien Plazas | Alexandre Franke: do you have a llink? | 17:40:28 |
| Adrien Plazas | Ah | 17:40:38 |
| HER0 | I'm not sure how that would stop someone from running their own repo if they wanted to push updates out faster than flathub. | 17:41:45 |
| Adrien Plazas | I'm not really shocked, if you maintain a repo you have the final word on what is on it | 17:41:49 |
|  445376 joined the room. | 17:55:32 |
| 445376 left the room. | 17:56:05 |
| Alexandre Franke | It’s more of a problem of guidelines and policies. | 18:05:33 |
| HER0 | Is this an official GNOME app? | 18:07:46 |
| HER0 | And code is still made available in places other than the official places. | 18:08:08 |
| HER0 | I don't think a flatpak repo is much different from a github repo. | 18:08:23 |
| Alexandre Franke | And I don’t think “let’s put everything on github” is sane either. | 18:09:39 |
| Alexandre Franke | You are right, it is very much the same problem. | 18:09:53 |
| HER0 | Yet it is done, and accepted. | 18:09:58 |
| HER0 | This project is hosted on GitHub by the author, for example. | 18:12:04 |
| HER0 | So I don't think a flatpak repo would be a stretch. Especially for an app that isn't officially listed as being part of GNOME anywhere. | 18:12:28 |
| Alexandre Franke | Mirrored, not the same. | 18:12:29 |
