Thank you, this is super useful!
Is there a way to make it not mask my system QGIS? After I installed
this on Manjaro or Ubuntu, it took over "QGIS" in the launcher menu. The
only way I could still run my normal QGIS was via "qgis" in the terminal.
I expect this to be some configuration setting of flatpak itself, but
found literally nothing via Google. So maybe it is something flatpak
build specific or my Google fu has broken.
Cheers, Hannes

Hi,
Based on the excellent Flatpak work of Aleix Pol
(https://github.com/flathub/org.qgis.qgis), I managed to create a
runnable Qt6 build of QGIS for Linux's (with flatpak available)
My idea is that Linux users of distro's without the needed
dependencies can run QGIS and test/update their Python plugins with
this build.
This flatpak build (master) is (thanks to Aleix!) having 3D and
PDAL/cloudpoint available too.
Note that this is my first flatpak build, probably things go/are
wrong, and I'm not sure how to do further/future distribution...
But for now: to run/try it:
Download the single-bundle file from
http://duif.net/qgis-qt6.flatpak
If you do not have flatpak/flathub available, make sure you do by
doing the steps at
https://flatpak.org/setup/ for your distro, to
1) install flatpak and
2) make the flathub repo available for needed runtimes and sdk's.
Now go to the qgis-qt6.flatpak file and INSTALL it:
flatpak install --runtime --include-sdk qgis-qt6.flatpak
(this will install the KDE runtime and sdk and then finally the
qgis-qt6 system wide)
Then to run it:
flatpak run org.qgis.qgis
I hope this is useful for anybody.
Have to talk to Aleix for more finesses to maybe share this on flathub
or with his Qt5 build.
If you want to build it yourself there is some info in:
https://github.com/flathub/org.qgis.qgis/issues/428
