Re: Frescobaldi+LilyPond flatpak package now available

[J Martin Rushton]

Hi Federico

Some good news at last!  I've got it running on the C8 VM :-)

The remote-add command needed authentication to install, and the actual 
installation asked for my password twice for every file!  Normally that 
means that it has installed as root (using sudo).  Now all I need to do 
is persuade the host machine to accept sound from the VM.

Thanks for your help in this, I'd guess it is an issue with down rev 
flatpak in C7.  I'll drop a line once I've checked out Fedora, but I 
doubt that there'll be any problems now.

Many thanks,
Martin
