Quick Question about Discover

Im curious, why would a package be downloadable and installable through the cli yay -Ss unigine-superposition but not show up at all in the Discover app?

From what I understand, Discover does not installl software from the AUR or Chaotic-aur. It installs flatpaks (atleast by default). So unless your software has a flatpak package, you’ll have to use the command line.
Also next time :wink: :

If I hate the package manager fragmentation lol. But.. It’s everywhere in terms of distributions. Thanks

On, also, today is the first time I’ve seen yay pop up and ask me to review the PKGBUILD. Didn’t know if that was related.

In Garuda yay is an alias for paru, actually ( if yay is not available but paru is) :slightly_smiling_face:
