4L LightScribe for Flatpak

Building

This version uses extra-data to fetch the (proprietary-licensed) RPMs as install-time, so the RPMs do not need to be fetched prior to building.

Install the build environment

flatpak remote-add --user --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install --user org.freedesktop.Platform//23.08 org.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386//23.08 org.freedesktop.Sdk//23.08 org.freedesktop.Sdk.Compat.i386//23.08 org.flatpak.Builder

Build

To build and install in one operation:

flatpak run org.flatpak.Builder --user --install --force-clean build uk.lukeross.flatpak.lightscribe.yml

To build and push to a repository called repo:

flatpak run org.flatpak.Builder --gpg-sign=keyid --repo=repo --force-clean build uk.lukeross.flatpak.lightscribe.yml

Building a bundle does not work as bundles currently cannot reference external data; see this ticket for details and to track the problem.
