Flatpak build files for minetest

Minetest flatpak build files.

Installation + Running

First, get the Freedesktop platform 1.6:

wget https://sdk.gnome.org/keys/gnome-sdk.gpg
flatpak remote-add --user --gpg-import=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome https://sdk.gnome.org/repo/
flatpak --user install gnome org.freedesktop.Platform 1.6

Then, install the bundle file like:

wget https://github.com/est31/minetest-flatpak/releases/download/v2.0/Minetest-0.4.16.flatpak
flatpak install --user --bundle Minetest-0.4.16.flatpak

You can then invoke flatpak run net.minetest.app to run the build.

Build it yourself (Stable minetest)

Similar to above, the first step is to get the Freedesktop platform (and the SDK) version 1.6:

wget https://sdk.gnome.org/keys/gnome-sdk.gpg
flatpak remote-add --user --gpg-import=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome https://sdk.gnome.org/repo/
flatpak --user install gnome org.freedesktop.Platform 1.6
flatpak --user install gnome org.freedesktop.Sdk 1.6

Then, clone minetest-flatpak, and build it:

git clone https://github.com/est31/minetest-flatpak
flatpak-builder minetest-flatpak/build --repo repo minetest-flatpak/net.minetest.app.json

It will create a new repo in the repo directory (or use an existing one if repo already contains a flatpak repo), and put the built result inside.

If you want, you can install the app to try it:

flatpak --user install repo net.minetest.app

Or you can extract the app from the repo and create a bundle file Minetest-0.4.16.flatpak:

flatpak build-bundle repo Minetest-0.4.16.flatpak net.minetest.app

Build it yourself (latest minetest from git)

Similar to above, the first step is to get the Freedesktop platform (and the SDK) version 1.6:

wget https://sdk.gnome.org/keys/gnome-sdk.gpg
flatpak remote-add --user --gpg-import=gnome-sdk.gpg gnome https://sdk.gnome.org/repo/
flatpak --user install gnome org.freedesktop.Platform 1.6
flatpak --user install gnome org.freedesktop.Sdk 1.6

Then, clone minetest-flatpak, and build it:

git clone https://github.com/est31/minetest-flatpak
flatpak-builder minetest-flatpak/build --repo repo minetest-flatpak/net.minetest.app.git.json

It will create a new repo in the repo directory (or use an existing one if repo already contains a flatpak repo), and put the built result inside.

If you want, you can install the app to try it:

flatpak --user install repo net.minetest.app.git

Or you can extract the app from the repo and create a bundle file Minetest-git.flatpak:

flatpak build-bundle repo Minetest-git.flatpak net.minetest.app.git
