[SOLVED] quick question - how to use flatpak
by JinxsDad from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6FVWB)
Before I start, I have read the man page.
I'm trying to install the flatpak for Handbrake. According to the man page, I should use flatpak-install.
FYI, flatpak is /usr/bin/flatpak and is rwx for root and r-x for group and other, and I am, of course, running it as root.
Response: -su: flatpak-install: command not found
That was under the original bash from su -. So I switched to zsh (using zsh -l to make it a login shell).
New error, but essentially the same error:
zsh: command not found: flatpak-install
In both shells, a "which flatpak" confirms that they're seeing flatpak in /usr/bin (i.e., no zsh alias, etc.).
I knew how to do this about six months ago, but in all the fuss over networking (or something that follow networking in the startup process) causing it to pause, trying Fedora (did not like it), then manjaro, then back to Slackware, combined with severe chemobrain from cancer #1, it's gone...completely gone).
I just need to get Handbrake installed (also Raw Therapee, but its appimage is not packaged correctly per the Raw Therapee forum---it's missing libthai.so.0). It would be nice if there was an APPimage for Handbrake, too. Those are all (except for Raw Therapee) a quick add to (in my case) ~/bin/Appimage and in /bin, a symbolic link to it. And then they just work.
Thanks
