I want to use your SDR 3 software on Linux, but it does not work on the distributions that I have (Fedora). Nowadays, the universal software platform Flatrack (flathub.org) has become widespread in Linux; it allows you to seamlessly run a variety of software on various Linux distributions. Please consider releasing your software for Linux in Flatpack format, this is very important for Linux users.

I'm not sure whether Flatpak is really a good idea here. The EESDR3 software has to work with other programs on the computer. The challenge with virtual audio cables and virtual serial cables is difficult enough as it is. Flatpak doesn't make it any easier. And these connections are also very time critical, e.g. with WSJTX.

The current package for Linux runs on many different systems. For me, the software also runs on Arch Linux. I am amazed how robust the installation is and that it is never affected by the frequent updates on my rolling release.

If it does not run on Fedora, I recommend analyzing the error messages more closely. Maybe a library is missing and needs to be installed.
