From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

How does it compare with flatseal?

[–] Chewy7324@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 10 months ago

Flatseal allows for configuration of flatpak sandbox permissions.

Warehouse allows for managing remotes, leftover data and viewing info for installed flatpaks.

Both complement each other as they have different functionality.

From their github:

  1. Viewing Flatpak Info: 📋 Warehouse can display all the information provided by the flatpak list command in a user-friendly graphical window. Each item includes a button for easy copying.
  1. Managing User Data: 🗑️ Flatpaks store user data in a specific system location, often left behind when an app is uninstalled. Warehouse can uninstall an app and delete its data, delete data without uninstalling, or simply show if an app has user data.
  1. Batch Actions: ⚡ Warehouse features a batch mode for swift uninstallations, user data deletions, and app ID copying in bulk.
  1. Leftover Data Management: 📁 Warehouse scans the user data folder to check for installed apps associated with the data. If none are found, it can delete the data or attempt to install a matching flatpak.
  1. Manage Remotes: 📦 Installed and enabled Flatpak remotes can be deleted, and new remotes can be added.
