I have a Python-package that calls Inkscape as part of a conversion process. I have it installed, but through Flatpak. This means that calling inkscape does not work in the terminal, but rather flatpak run org.inkscape.Inkscape. I need the package to be able to call it as inkscape.

What is the best way to go about this?

    A good argument against containerization of programs tbh.

      Yup, pack it up folks. We spent years working to solve containerized applications with a granular permission system, but we can’t figure out how to make an executable run a command. It was a good run, but it’s over now.

        Finally someone got the point instead of just downvoting. 🤣
