error: org.gnome.baobab/x86_64/stable is already installed from remote fedora
error: Recipe install-system-flatpaks failed with exit code 1
P.S. I regularly update flatpak using the command flatpak update and install flatpak with command flatpak install [desired app]
Maybe my suggestion is too confusing.
I am suggesting a separate justfile and accompanying ojust (old-just) command to access them.
The idea is to separate the ujust commands which have some permanence from the version specific commands ojust.
Honestly, do we / can we just have something like a tray app a la Matray or some other way that could be used to deliver messages to users?
When an image is being a distro and having a change in opinion, it isn’t a problem if the user is informed. We likely should never be like Arch and have some catastrophe that you don’t want people to update to, but just in case and even for something like this, it’d be nice if we can be sure a notice is sent to the user.
We have an issue for this filed somewhere, the idea is to have an rss reader preconfigured for announcements, etc. but no one has accepted that side quest yet.
The problem with adding things like this is we have to touch the user’s space and experience has taught us that it’s better to just leave it than try to bake in a service unit, etc.
We know flatpak lifecycle management is coming upstream at some point, and usually it’s just a new set of opinions on default apps, so it’s not the end of the world. But also mildly infuriating lol.
