Post #2477510

That is a runtime that some flatpaks use as well. Gnome and KDE as projects are a bunch of things, from login managers, to compositers, desktop UIs, and user application (like Gnome "System Monitor" or KDEs "Plasma System Monitor"). You can actually mix and match some pieces and they just work, but especially the user apps because both teams put in work for interoperabilty or Freedesktop standarization. So you can have an app that uses KDEs shared libs and an app that uses the Gnome projects libs on the same issue with rarely any issue. Even more so with flatpak since the all of the files those apps see are in what is called an overlay filesystem, so your kde apps get a layer of files jist for KDE apps to build off of and gnome apps get a layer of files just for them to use. In flatpak these are called runtimes. That is what is being updated here.
