But why? It’s job is to install software, why make it worse by supporting less package formats?
I mean this seems reasonable especially with how quickly flatpaks are becoming so common.
I’m sure this wouldn’t happen for a very long time though

Then gnome will cease to be an option.
Fucking flatpaks.
While I prefer Debian packages, what’s wrong with Flatpaks other than a bit of bloat caused by redundant dependencies? They’re not Snaps.
They acutally use deduplication. So if there is a package needed in e.g. 10 different flatpaks it will not take 10x the space on the drive.
Really? Nice. Didn’t know that about Flatpaks.
It was mentioned in a podcast from the linux cast - there was actually a guy (I believe he works for gnome) and he cleaned up with some prejudices about flatpaks. One of them being that they consume too much space on disk ;)
