[GRASS-user] GRASS and Flatpak

GRASS GRASS user
1

Hi all !

I’ve been having compatibility problems with packages like python, python-wxpython, python-wxpython-dev, etc. for about the last six months. I am working in Manjaro based on Arch. Today, after upgrading GRASS to version 8.0.1-1, the Layers tab is still not working.

Is it possible to distribute GRASS using flatpak technology (to build and distribute desktop applications on Linux)? Are there any fundamental obstacles to doing so?

All the best,

Hi Vassily,

GRASS GIS seems to be included in the QGIS flatpack:

org.qgis.qgis/org.qgis.qgis.json at master · flathub/org.qgis.qgis (github.com)

Cheers

Stefan
