Alright, so both Brave and LibreOffice had an regular update. Now, with GIMP, the update is about a dependency it uses.
As you may know, on Flatpak an app bundles its dependencies which are not in the runtime. So, if one of these dependencies are updated in the manifest, this results in a new build for the app, hence the update.
If you were to look into the repository of the GIMP manifest, you would see that the latest update was about graphviz
library.
Now, with this out of the way…
I can’t speak for the moderators directly.
But as the one who has responded most of the time:
The last few posts of you always were “Why is there an update”, even outright assuming bad behavior because the developer of an app didn’t update the version number on his website as well when updating the app on Flathub.
And at some point, this is just tiring.
If you have to question every update that comes your way, from now on please check it for yourself. Go to the repository of the manifest (github.com/flathub/APP_ID
) and check the commit history.
Or even make your own repository and build the software yourself, with full control over updates…
But please don’t open new topics each time for essentially the same question…
I personally will not answer any more of this.
