I've thought about this myself, but I don't really have any first-hand
experience with any of these (apart from dabbling a bit with snaps on
Arch). However, snaps and flatpaks get mentioned quite a bit in Linux
podcasts lately. There's quite a bit of stuff available already in these
formats, and people use them to install quite complicated applications such
as video editors, and that seems to work fine these days. So I'd say that
they should probably work reasonably well for purr-data as well, at least
on recent Linux systems. But someone with good working knowledge of any of
these systems will just have to do the work and give it a try.
