[feature] Gnome-Software integration

Open TobiPeterG opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Hey there,

As an end user, it would be nice if applications could be installed graphically in distrobox using gnome software.

This could work by e.g. linking gnome software's package kit Backend of one container to the host. The call would be redirected to the container instead of running on the host.

Alternatively, a new gnome software backend would be required.

Hi. This is out of scope for the project. However, if someone writes a back end and wants to maintain it, that could be considered. For this use case, Flatpaks are best
