📦 FlatPak package

[joezhouchenye]

I found this app in flathub and the flatpak version doesn't work. The appimage version works well.

I got an empty window and the following error if I run it in terminal.

So, we don't have this implemented mostly because Tauri doesn't really easily support it yet.

The main tracking issue in the Tauri repo is here: tauri-apps/tauri#3619

There is also a discussion here: tauri-apps/tauri#4426

And proposed documentation here (not yet merged): https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri-docs/pull/1760/files

We'll take a look at how to do this, but it looks like it's still a bit hacky. Of course, if Tauri adds more official support, it will land here more quickly.

Hi @alexanderadam ,

App updates are there in the appimage, don't worry about that. Whenever the update is available, there should be a pop up in the application ( I saw that just now myself )

I am not sure about flatpack, but RPM bundle support is there in Tauri 2.0-beta. PKGBUILDS support will also be added soon ( most probably, I am working on that ).

So, with Tauri 2.0, we will have native support for most generally used distros, that is Arch Based, Fedora based and Debian based distros, and also there is AppImage if you are on any other. So, need of Flatpacks will be more or less eliminated in my humble opinion.

Btw, here is how the pop up looks right now for AppImage
