GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 780562
Software doesn't say why it cannot install a flatpak
Last modified: 2018-01-24 17:31:43 UTC
I tried to install the official LibreOffice flatpak which requires GNOME 3.20 runtime which I didn't have installed. Software didn't give me any clue why it cannot install the flatpak and that I have to install the runtime first. Instead it does nothing when I click the "Install" button. That's very confusing. I have to run Software in the verbose mode to find out what the problem is. Software should inform the user why it cannot install a flatpak.
i second this too...or at least it should automatically download dependencies...
I does that, if the GNOME remote was added beforehand.
