Flatpak 0.10.1 is now the latest version of the Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework (formerly XDG-App), adding new commands to display information about applications in a remote (flatpak remote-info) and to allow you to search the appstream data from the command-line (flatpak search). New command “flatpak remote-info” shows information about applications in a remote. In particular the –log operation shows the history and can be used in combination with flatpak upate –commit=XYZ to roll back to a previous version,” explains Alex Larsson in the GitHub release notes.
