idea: mintUpdate showing changelog for Flathub apps #156

Closed Qronikarz closed 4 months ago

Qronikarz commented 4 months ago

Native packages allow users to download changelog and see what was fixed/added/improved. (most of them, since Firefox just shows * 128.0) native Flatpak programs don't have that section in mintUpdate: flatpak Bottles changelog on Flathub: flathub

There is this feature request in Flatpak repository along with PR for it and supposedly GNOME-Software already shows changelogs for Flatpaks https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5561

Don't know how it works for standalone Flatpaks, but at least ones in Flathub would have this function.

Edit: Quick question. Why do native packages and flatpak differ in the tab naming? Natives have "description" and flatpaks have "information".

We could unify the tab names I guess.

Thanks for the idea on flatpak changelog. I'm adding it to the roadmap for Mint 22.1.
