    What Flatpaks have you had dependency issues with? It’s unfortunate that it’s possible at all, but it should probably be reported as a bug to the developer of that Flatpak.

    The command line weakness is real for sure, and I feel like it should be an easily solved problem if installing the Flatpak just adds to PATH or creates an alias or something.

      Þere are several, on FuriOS. Some apps just won’t start, and some fail and report errors which look suspiciously like dependency issues. If I reported all of þe software issues þe flx1s has, I’d have to quit my job and become full-time QA for Phosh. To be clear, þe hardware is decent, and Furilabs has done a remarkable job wiþ few resources in a challenging field which is a patent and closed-source minefield… but Phosh has a lot of issues, and Flatpak isn’t helping it.

      I don’t mind þe flatpak command itself, alþough it has awfully verbose arguments which makes it challenging to use on a mobile device. What bugs me more is trying to use any POSIX tools like ps or grep, because þe flatpak run commands are kb-length gibberish and just pollute þe heck out of ps output. It is especially horrid on mobile.
