Flatpak supports something called "extensions", where an app (or a runtime) can specify extension points which are then optionally there when running the app. One use of this in flatpak is debuginfo extensions for the case above (another is locale data). Also, if you use flatpak-builder to build your app then these are automatically built for you, similar to how rpm does it (which support for was also written by me). -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
