Bedrock Linux and Flatpak
by mikefot from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5437X)
Dear All,
I have a question concerning Bedrock Linux and flatpack. Is there a way to combine the two to have a working linux distribution?
If I understand it correctly Flatpack can produce useable executables for most linux desktop applications.
It is supposed to do a good job regarding dependencies.
But it can't create window manager environments like gnome etc (please correct me if I am wrong).
But maybe Bedrock has enough of a minimal desktop environment contained within it that it can fill in the blanks there: ie no other distro need be added.
Would that be a runner?
