Distribution (run cat /etc/os-release):
Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS
Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME):pop-desktop-2.0.0~1690839996~22.04~fda3f07
Issue/Bug Description:
I prefer to manage packages with apt (plus DEBs and appimages for 3rd party packages) and I've been running pop with uninstalled pop-shop and flatpak. After the pop-desktop2.0.0 update, flatpak got installed during update and removing fails with unmet dependency error.
Steps to reproduce (if you know):
Removing flatpak with sudo apt remove flatpak pop-shop now fails with unmet dependencies:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pop-desktop : Depends: flatpak but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: pop-shop but it is not going to be installed
Expected behavior:
Flatpak is only needed for installing 3rd party software but can be removed when using other means.
Other Notes:
Is flatpak now needed for some base desktop functionality? Given that pop-shop is still only recommended would it be possible to make flatpak soft recommended dependency as well instead of hard required dependency?
