Bug ID: 401956
Summary: Flatpak can't interoperate with hosts packages data
Product: Discover
Version: unspecified
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: mybigs...@mail.ru
Target Milestone: ---
As usual Flatpak container, Discover being packaged with Flatpak has separate
from host data directory. This mean it can't interoperate with hosts installed
packages, etc.
The problem is XDG_DATA_HOME environment variable.
By default, is has value <$HOME>/.var/app/org.kde.discover/data.
To make it work, I have to manually change it's value in the container before
Discover run:
$ flatpak run --command=sh org.kde.discover
$ export XDG_DATA_HOME=~/.local/share/
$ plasma-discover
I didn't find any solution beside hardcode the variable value at build time.
Any suggestions are welcome, but I think we should fix it any way.
