Provide Vlc flatpak package

Postby Lvaskz » 31 Mar 2018 04:06

Vlc is a great App and there is a flatpak versión in the flathub. I tried it and works very well. Flatpak can be sopported by the most stable distros. Can you make official this vlc flatpak? Here https://github.com/flathub/org.videolan.VLC
Vlc in flathub not update automatically, instead the user must to report Every updating, that is why I request a flatpak versión.
Here some more info

So far, this is not supported by the community because this is missing a lot of modules.

I must say that the benefits of a FlatPak on top of ther existing Snap and AppImage packages are nonobvious.

I agree. VLC should provide a official flathub version or a complete direct download package.
