How to get info. on Flatpak app.?

[danielson]

From what i can tell, the only way to get info. (version no.) on a specific Flatpak app., is to visit Flathub?

Try

Code: Select all

flatpak list

in a terminal.

If you want a GUI for flatpak management, you can install the flatpak Flatseal. Aside from permissions it also shows information about installed flatpak programs.

@MadMax - think i forgot to mention, "prior to installation".

Btw, only install from Flatpak as a last resort.
If i can't find it in the MX installer, Discover, Synaptic or the .deb file anywhere else on the web, then Flatpak is handy (better than Snaps anytime!).

Ah ok - well, MXPI actually shows version and application size in its table.

In terminal you can use

Code: Select all

flatpak search <programname>

similar to apt search.
