As far as I understand this issue, removing the current remote and then adding it back as normal user should work?
Thanks for the link. I'll play around with the remotes and add some feedback to the ticket.
If I can set the user remotes on behalf of other users in advance, that should suffice for now. Otherwise, if each user has to know how to add their own remote in order for it to take priority, that's a real pain point.
Add the user to the flatpak
group to avoid needing wheel.
Otherwise, use my list of flatpak repos for help.
I keep it updated as I think there is nothing like that.
I've been doing some flatpak packaging last month following the Flathub tutorial, and somehow in my gnome software now I have the option to install flatpaks as user in the drop-down. Something about the remotes that I needed to change to test the flatpak files I generated.
Good to know it's possible! I'm going to play around with the remote configs and see if I can accomplish the same for any future user accounts.
I use flatpaks for almost everything now, but I admit I haven't spent much time on their backend management aside from flatseal.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
