<div dir="auto"><div>IOhannes is correct. There is one thing that OP might be hinting at, however, that might be worth considering. The flatpak developers want projects to be using the latest version of the freedesktop and are strongly discouraging use of older versions on newly submitted projects. This is why in the recent release of Pd-L2Ork I was required to use the latest 23.08. Given that adjusting this in any flatpak manifest requires a simple change and I have not seen any regressions going from 22.08 to this one, it may not be a bad idea to encourage all Pd flatpak variants to use the same version of the flatpak, which in turn will significantly lower a cumulative hard drive footprint for those who wish to have multiple versions installed alongside.<br><br><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature">Best,<br><br>Ico<br><br>-- <br>Ivica Ico Bukvic, D.M.A.<br>Director, Creativity + Innovation<br>Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology<br><br>Virginia Tech<br>Creative Technologies in Music<br>School of Performing Arts – 0141<br>Blacksburg, VA 24061<br>(540) 231-6139<br><a href="mailto:ico@vt.edu">ico@vt.edu</a><br><br><a href="http://ci.icat.vt.edu">ci.icat.vt.edu</a><br><a href="http://l2ork.icat.vt.edu">l2ork.icat.vt.edu</a><br><a href="http://ico.bukvic.net">ico.bukvic.net</a></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Nov 3, 2023, 05:02 IOhannes m zmölnig <<a href="mailto:zmoelnig@iem.at">zmoelnig@iem.at</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On 11/2/23 18:07, Linux ROUEN Normandie wrote:<br>

are you sure?<br>
<br>
if you *only* install e.g. "Pd", you might need 2GB, but the flatpak of <br>
Pd itself is only 43MB (extracted).<br>
it does require a runtime environment ("Freedesktop Platform" and <br>
friends), which *is* quite big in total.<br>
<br>
however, in my understanding, the platform can be shared between <br>
different applications, so once you have installed e.g. Pd, also <br>
installing Pd-L2ork will only add another 572MB, and also installing <br>
PurrData will only add another 284MB.<br>
<br>
<br>
(there are different versions of the "Freedesktop Environment", so the <br>
above is not *always* true; nevertheless there is a lot of data sharing <br>
between applications)<br>
