Bug ID: 47000 Summary: Make WineHQ available as flatpak in Flathub Product: Packaging Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-packages Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: yousifjkadom@yahoo.com CC: michael@fds-team.de, sebastian@fds-team.de Distribution: ---
Hi.
I would like, here, to suggest to make WineHQ available as flatpak in Flathub.
This will be very useful since flatpak is secure & sandboxed, so user will be a way from infect heir/his PC by a virus or spywar. If flatpak Wine run a virus, then it will be like if Wine sandboxed by firejail run such virus.
Moreover, flatpak can minimize time & efforts in packaging because it is a generic package working in many Linux distro regardless OS version.
Also, Wine contain huge number of 32 bit packages that are, mostly, not needed by any other application.
