Solus’s eopkg TUI Solseek Now Offers Full Flatpak Handling

posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Nov 18, 2025

Quoting: Solus's eopkg TUI Solseek Now Offers Full Flatpak Handling —

At the end of last month, I introduced Solseek, a new TUI wrapper for Solus’s eopkg package manager, which offers a fast and streamlined way to browse, install, and update software on Solus Linux. Since then, it has been progressing rapidly, with ongoing development introducing new features and enhancements.

The recently released Solseek 0.3.2 brings a key expansion by adding full Flatpak handling alongside several performance and quality-of-life improvements.

The update now enables users to list, search, install, reinstall, verify, and remove Flatpaks directly from the TUI, placing them on equal footing with native eopkg packages.
