Yeah, but you guys certainly do care that whatever shows up in Krita's webpage
is not wrong, wouldn't you? I hope the missing/truncated part of your sentence
is "...so I will of course ask them to check and fix that as soon as possible,
thanks for catching that one mate!"

Is it?

Otherwise, it doesn't take much to prove, for example, that 'flatpak remote-add
--if-not-exists flathub' is not a valid command and will fail; in case my
report is not convincing, the man page should suffice. So... Seriously??

What would be the point on, knowingly, keep incorrect installation instructions
on the download page of the product that takes so much effort and money to put
together?  Somebody else's problem?  I don't get it. I'm just trying to report
a problem on the Krita webpage, to the Krita developers, on something relevant
to this thread. I though you guys, Krita owners, should be the natural choice.
"The people" and "they" are too vague for me. But hey.

Still: Would it be somehow possible to kindly forward this information to
someone who could do something to fix wrong information in the official Krita
download webpage, where potential Krita users will have trouble with bad
instructions? I mean, I don't need it for myself any more, I've had my bad
experience and frustrations already. I thought other people, less savvy with
computers, should be saved from that "User Experience" (pissed users ===
detractors of your project).

Sorry, this time I catastrophically fail to see or understand your position on
this. In this case, it's _not_ about whoever creates flatpaks or whatnot: it's
about *Krita users* using Krita official documentation that is wrong, whoever
wrote it. As user, I don't care if it was Bob, Jane or Alice. It says "Krita"
all over the place.  Users are the reason of your (or any) project. Without
them, no project. Users don't have any business in the innermost administrative
details of who is assigned what or who steps/doesn't step on who's toes, etc.
That's how laundry works at home.  It's far, far too much beyond what any user
needs or wants to know.

Sadly, this reminds me of Public Services where one asks at the Information
Counter about something and they redirect us to another Information Counter in
which we can ask where to find information on who may have information about
the proper Information Counter.

I hope I am wrong, but that's how it looks to me. Please show me how incredibly
wrong I am, and I will fully retract all the rants. Anyone, please ?

I totally understand. I can only say that I maintain my humble offer of
contribution. If you would like to try some isolated experiments, please by all
means let me know if I can help in any way.

This is _not_ about me, though. We are talking about one of the top models,
professional class, most popular and arguably the best brand on its business. 
The point is not Wacom. It's its users.  Not me, in particular. I can always
find my way with other solutions if necessary, FOSS or not. It's the "top
professional" ones. Anyone who is _really_ serious about digital illustration
business, won't survive with a BambooFun tablet, period.  They do use the big
toys, as it's public.  I don't think Krita is meant to be exclusively for
hobbyists, poor students or people who can't afford and won't use pirate copies
of Adobe/Corel products.  It's for all.

Fully supporting some of the top Wacom devices, the most popular amongst
professionals, should be just a natural goal for Krita. And removing any
annoyances that disturb that goal should therefore be equally important. Any
serious professionals googling for "Krita + Wacom Cintiq 27QHD" would get to
this thread.  I hope they understand that it is possible and don't get
frustrated with my experience. If Krita could have one of those giant
professional names we all admire (Aaron Blaise, Jason Seiler, Mike Luckovich,
why not?) acknowledging and endorsing this project, we all would be very happy.
