Hi there,
Flatpak is a nice approach to containerised apps, but has pretty opinionated stance on CLI apps and CLI in general (AFAIK).
This comes as particularly problematic when using DAW Flatpaks, as they can’t access system dependencies and thus oftentimes are unable to run some external plugins because of missing dependencies. These missing ones are not installed when that particular DAW’s Flatpak is installed because they are not needed for the DAW, only for the external plugin.
Is there a way to install them manually?
And why didn’t Flatpak developers enable a simple terminal (call it Flatpak-terminal or whatever) where one can do regular CLI commands just like on a normal system? Something akin to accessing a Distrobox / Toolbx container, but this time the system Flatpak install.
