Bug ID: 463910
Summary: Krita AppImage fails to launch from within Flatpak
version of Steam.
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: 5.1.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: emmetoneill....@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When running Steam itself as a Flatpak, the Steam version of Krita will
consistently fail to launch. This is because AppImages require FUSE mounts, and
FUSE mounts are incompatible with Flatpak sandboxing.
This is normal/low priority because it's pretty niche and there are a lot of
other ways to get and use Krita on Linux that don't involve running it through
the Flatpak version of Steam, but for those people who have chosen to support
us on Steam it's important that we make sure that it functions properly,
especially as Flatpaks and Steam get more popular each year.
To remedy this, we might have to change the way that we package Krita on Steam
for Linux.
