Hey guys!
I've managed to package Bitwig into flatpak. Here's how to make it work: https://gitlab.com/renich/bitwigstudio-flatpak/
If you have any issues, ask me and I am happy to help.

Have you been in touch with the Bitwig team to potentially upload this flatpak to flathub once the major bugs are fixed? It would be absolutely amazing! Thank your for your work and efforts! I really appreciate it.

Thanks!
I sent them an email during 2.4 beta. They did reply to say they were crazy busy and couldn't attend right now, but they were interested. Have to follow up on that.
Another thing I would propose is them to provide a tar.gz for Flatpak use (instead of me unpacking the Deb) so stuff is easier... Or have them build it themselves.
Also, I'm trying to work out with Flatpak how to solve the jack2 issue. It seems that Flatpak prefers focusing on PipeWire, which looks promising and, supposedly, has jack2 compatibility out of the box.
I'm excited for that. Let's see what happens.

Well, preliminary success on a Fedora 28 virtual machine!
I haven't tested everything yet, but it appears to work so far.

Awesome! I believe that Pipewire is supposed to be ready to replace Jack2 somewhen in 2019 in the Fedora stack. The audio team is actually coming together to discuss and finish the implementation (https://blogs.gnome.org/uraeus/2018/09/ ... nux-audio/). We will see how fast Pipewire will be moving in the upcoming months. I'm sure Canoncial will be interested in it as well for Ubuntu and maybe their own Snap packaging system. I'm really excited about the future of Linux audio!

Hey, Bitwig Studio in Flatpak user!
Here's the update procedure so you know how to update it:
Please, update these three lines:
They're near the bottom of the yaml file. after that, just execute:
That should be enough. Just in case, I will attach the new yaml file here. Just unzip it with `gunzip com.bitwig.BitwigStudio.yaml.gz` and replace it with the old one.
The main howto (first post) has been updated as well.
Here's the update procedure so you know how to update it:
Please, update these three lines:
Code: Select all
....
- ar x bitwig-studio-2.4.1.deb

sha256: 87627a4c9a5c2a8647f3d6d2ac1080720659fcde1ee6c8ed6ccb6cc976fc1f32

BTW, here's how I get the sha256 hash:
* Download the updated deb package
* run: `sha256sum bitwig-studio-2.4.1.deb`
Just in case you want to know. The `ar` command is the one decompressing the deb file so update the filename there as well.
This is, for now, all the information you need to update it yourself.
