  • Advice: TW or Aeon

    Yes, it's fixed by not using the native sandbox entirely, and using a much weaker Flatpak's sandbox instead through zypak, thus not recommended and not officially supported.
  • How to install Brave and Vivaldi browsers in openSUSE
    1 project | /r/openSUSE | 17 Jun 2023
    Flatpak version seems to be working fine, but it's not officially supported. Also, the Flatpak version runs without Chromium sandbox through zypak, instead it runs with a much weaker Flatpak sandbox. I won't recommend anyone to run Chromium based browser through Flatpak.
  • With the port to GTK 4 that will bring better performance, and extensions, Epiphany takes a big leap forward and becomes a viable option for many others.

    Most chromium based browsers and apps use zypak when runnung as a Flatpak so how is it more insecure ?
  • Why Flatpak is bad (and how to fix it)

    Although the other commenter gave a great reply, I want to add: once I actually tried this to make Electron use the portals, and it just didn't work out:
  • Packaging mullvadvpn on openSUSE Tumbleweed
    2 projects | /r/openSUSE | 22 Dec 2021
    BTW, it is currently not possible to flatpak mullvad-daemon, because it requires sudo permission and install systemd services. Flatpaking the GUI is also hard, because it uses chrome-sandbox and zypak(https://github.com/refi64/zypak) doesn't work because of segfault.
  • Electron app Failed to get ipaddress when exported as Flatpak
    3 projects | /r/flatpak | 19 Jul 2021
    In electron package.json we have an option to add this modules "makers": [ { "name": "@electron-forge/maker-flatpak", "config": { "name": "OpenSpeedTest_Server", "options": { "categories": [ "Utility" ], "icon": { "512x512": "src/android-chrome-512x512.png" } }, "modules": [ { "name": "zypak", "sources": [ { "type": "git", "url": "https://github.com/refi64/zypak", "tag": "v2021.02" } ] }, { "name": "iproute2", "make-install-args": [ "PREFIX=/app", "CONFDIR=/app/share/iproute2", "SBINDIR=/app/bin" ], "sources": [ { "type": "archive", "url": "https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/iproute2/iproute2-5.7.0.tar.xz", "sha256": "725dc7ba94aae54c6f8d4223ca055d9fb4fe89d6994b1c03bfb4411c4dd10f21" } ], "cleanup": [ "/include", "/share/bash-completion", "/share/man" ] } ] } },
  • Dev Channel update to 92.0.902.2 is going live today!

    If it's not clear from (1.), please distribute Edge officially as Flatpak app via Flathub. Use this chance that you have a generic distro-decoupled runtime to provide aarch64 builds. The issue is reported here.
