Background-Story: I did a "flatpak update" on a remote client and every package wants the PW for downloading and for installing again. I had to enter the password like 30 times or more.

And it is the right direction.

I disagree. There's already a universal format for deploying software on all Linux distros. It's called "source code".

Well there's always Gentoo for those who want that, I suppose.

Or Arch. Or Slackware. Or OpenSUSE. Or basically any general purpose distro that isn't Debian-based.

I meant more geared for source from the get-go. Compiling everything from source without package manager or something, old school style might be a bit of a pain for most users.
