Well, good for you. Now let’s prove it

Since HA depends on a lot of python packages, on external softwares and libraries it could not feasible to ensure that the versions packaged with the distribution will always be in line with those needed by HA

You should ask this to your favourite distro packagers, not to the home assistant developers.

In any case, it is such a mess of dependencies due to load of optional packages, very active development, that continuously break dependencies on the package repo.

What advantage would bring have a most of the time obsolete distro specific repo? On a maintainer POV this is the typical use case for distro agnostic deployment, maybe flatpak, maybe docker.

Actually it has two GUIs, it has its own web GUI or you can use rclone browser

Yes, thanks. I wrote snap but I actually intended flatpak, D’OH!

Freecad appimage stopoed working

Luckily the FLATPAK version still runs fine

Edit: I wrote snap but I intended FLATPAK Edit 2: weekly builds of freecad from GitHub are working fine

You could also try to ping 8.8.8.8 (or whatever public IP you can remember). If it works it is not getting a correct DNS which results in “no connection”

In this case modify your connection on the laptop to use 8.8.8.8 (google) or 208.67.222.222 (opendns) and check if it works

With current government it could… Jokes a aside, it is not about the ten commandments, vatican have a civil law mostly inspired by the Italian one

You would have problems with widevine and other similar DRM sh!t

You will suffer your eternal pain in an hell of melted cheese for calling that rat bait mozzarella

Thanks for the detailed answer
