Flatpak fucking my hard drive with questionable consent Part 2: Electric boogaloo
Ive just gone to update my flatpak. I now have to download 7 slightly different versions of nvidia drivers. 7 Fucking times the same Nvidia driver. 7. 7 Goddamn times.
And no, I dont want to hear your excuses for this. I dont care if it only downloads 370 Mbs instead of 371.
You're viewing a single thread.
How about you use the native packages then?
Sometimes I do pull the source and build natives myself, just to spite these fuckers
But that's only because I know how to fix their seventeen build errors
Meanwhile I'm chilling with the AUR and a rather good knowledge about how to create and maintain PKGBUILDs
well, users of atomic distros that can't do that and have to rely on containerized applications e.g. via flatpak (appimage, ... that other one ...)
That one meme, with the kid sticking a stick into their own bicycles' wheel
Temba, their hands open.
is linux mint atomic, can't google im on a train
nope
good, i guess
No they don't. You can always install them in a distrobox, or layer them, or just copy them into your home. It's Linux, you're free to choose which way you like.
Not up to date enough / unavailable / I don't want to compile. Spin the wheel, pick a reason.
