Hi, as you may be aware, Rocky Linux is a fork of RHEL 8.
Rocky is meant as a replacement option for Centos.
A number of us are using Rocky as a desktop/workstation.
Flatpak is installed by default in Rocky.
Since Rocky is not an option listed on Flatpakâthe future of application distribution, I clicked on the setup link for RHEL. And this seems to work.
-
But is this safe? Is it ok to use the setup link for RHEL to setup flatpak in Rocky?

Please consider adding Rocky as a distro on your setup page.
Thanks ahead of time…
you can submit a pull request.
The file is https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak.github.io/blob/source/data/distro.yml
(it’s for the flatpak website)
Hi @hub,
Thanks for responding to my 2nd question. Unfortunately I am just an end user of flatpak and Rocky Linux and I am not technical enough to understand what a pull request is, much less execute it.
So again if anyone at flathub would consider adding Rocky Linux to the setup page, that would be much appreciated.
I have not had anyone answer my first question, maybe because I am asking 2 questions in the same topic - so I will break it out into a separate topic.
Hi @ Haggen88,
Thanks for letting me know about this.
