Hi if you are looking for a snap package you can take a look at https://github.com/hovo1990/freerdp_snap

Another advantage of using snap is that it allows exposing the xfreerdp command directly to the system, one can call it natively instead of flatpak run com.freerdp.FreeRDP.

I would totally love to help on this one :-)

Flatpak is bad. It messes up with my computer's Nvidia driver especially if I have CUDA toolkit installed.
