Make Inkscape installed through Flatpak callable in the terminal as 'inkscape'?
![](https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/q98XK4sKtw.png)
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?

If you need to pass flags you can use
To forward all of the arguments to the script. Note that this might be a bashism, so you might need to change your hash bang to /bin/bash as well. Double check though.
(An easy way to check if something is working as you assume is just prepend the line with echo.)
This is not a bashism. It'll work fine with any sh.
Thanks, I wasn't sure it worked in sh. I've been surprised a lot before by seemingly simple stuff like this.
