Which app? Because it all depends of how much access and permissions the app needs. Managing volumes or changing devices is usually the problem. So far I’ve only had to layer two apps (on bazzite, though): veracrypt and vorta. To access old backups. Everything else works fine, even desktop integration. Although I prefer to use box buddy to handle distrobox as a UI, which runs as a flatpak without problem. It’s been great so far at resolving that kind of issues: bug, update, now it works.
So I started out with a bugreport to BoxBuddy because that’s where I first found it. Then they said it was just running a distrobox create --cloneyaddayadda so I then went to distrobox issues. Then when I tried it in a dualboot on that same machine of Fedora 41 and it worked, I went searching for the Aurora issues tracker with no luck, and then I got on with my life.
