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.

I haven’t, and prior to this post I wasn’t even aware of flatseal. I haven’t been doing too much dev work on my home machine lately, so fixing this gripe is kinda low on my priority list, but I’ll keep that in mind as an option if I ever get around to it. Most likely, though, I’ll probably just go back to the tarball. I really do think that I picked a less-than-ideal use case for flatpak on this one.
