Please make a flatpak package

Open angerangel opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hi, I'm trying to use autotrash, it's installed with pipx, but it doesn't work. I got only Found trash directory: /home/max/.local/share/Trash

It depends on python2? On python3? Is it any missing library? Please make a flatpak package.

It's a python 3+ project. If you don't get any errors, it might just all be working as intended.

Could you try autotrash --stat as well, to see what reports?

I just now remember that I looked into flatpak already and it seems to be geared towards GUI applications. This project is a headless CLI tool that is meant to run as a scheduled background task without the user noticing anything (except for the trash being cleaned automatically).

Do you think it makes sense to create a flatpak distribution? I don't have much experience myself, but we can probably get it working. Do you have experience building flatpaks?
