MX Updater (flatpaks) -- a right click suggestion

#1 Post by Antediluvian »

This suggestion has to do with updating flatpaks. When you right click on the MX Updater in the panel one of the choices that comes up is Check for Updates. I assume that uses apt to show the updates available. Would it be possible from the MX Updater to show the available flatpak updates if asked to?

Accordingly, when you right click on the MX Updater you would have two choices of checking for updates: Check for Apt Updates and Check for Flatpak Updates.

Aside: I don't know if it is possible or even desirable for flatpak updates to show up in addition to the apt updates in response to the MX Updater routine chron job (that is, without invoking the right click call). After all, the app used to called apt-notifier.
