OpenModelica

Prerrequisites

The flathub remote should be added first:

flatpak remote-add flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

and then install the following for x86_64 architecture:

flatpak install flathub org.kde.Sdk/x86_64/5.11 
flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.openjdk9/x86_64/1.6
flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.gfortran-62/x86_64/1.6

BaseApp

The org.openmodelica.BaseApp contains the main dependencies for OpenModelica (right now a minimum set, not all).

To build it and install it for the current user:

$ flatpak-builder --user --install app org.openmodelica.BaseApp.yml

To build it and install it for all users:

$ sudo flatpak-builder --install app org.openmodelica.BaseApp.yml

It might be needed to add --force-clean if you need to execute it twice for some reason.

Omedit

It contains everything needed to run OMEdit. It depends on BaseApp.

To build it and install it for the current user:

$ flatpak-builder --user --install app org.openmodelica.OMEdit.yml

To build it and install it for all the users:

$ sudo flatpak-builder --install app sci.openmodelica.Omedit.yml

Bundles

It is possible to store both packages in single files once compiled. If we have installed both packages for the current user, we can do:

$ flatpak build-bundle ~/.local/share/flatpak/repo BaseApp.flatpak org.openmodelica.BaseApp

and:

$ flatpak build-bundle ~/.local/share/flatpak/repo OMEdit.flatpak org.openmodelica.OMEdit

This will create the following couple of files. I have created the two following files (no warranty about them; I am also a newbie):

• BaseApp.flatpak: 33Mb
• OMEdit.flatpak: 452Mb

Installing from these files doesn't require to compile.

Installing from bundle files (To be checked)

If you have the bundle files, you can install from them by just doing:

$ flatpak install --user BaseApp.flatpak
$ flatpak install --user OMEdit.flatpak

TODO

• [ ] To update the openjdk dependency.
• [ ] To include more icons.
• [ ] To include it in flathub.
