A tutorial explaining how to downgrade Flatpak packages in Linux has been published by It's FOSS.
The article walks readers through installing the lightweight video editor Avidemux on Ubuntu 22.10, 22.04 LTS, and 20.04 using three popular methods: Snap, apt from the default repository, or Flatpak.
It explains why each package manager is useful; Snap offers quick installation and automatic updates with a classic confinement flag, the Ubuntu repo provides a signed, theme‑integrated version, while Flatpak bundles all dependencies for newer builds.
The guide includes step‑by‑step command snippets, practical tips like verifying the install via the --version flag, and a sanity check that tests cutting a clip without codec errors.
By sharing real‑world anecdotes of users who struggled with “invalid format” errors before switching to Snap or Flatpak, the post reassures newcomers that getting Avidemux up and running on these Ubuntu releases is straightforward and reliable.
The guide explains how to get KDevelop on Ubuntu 22.10, 22.04 and 20.04 without dependency headaches. It starts with a system update, then recommends installing the stable package from the official repositories while also offering Snap and source build options for newer versions. Common pitfalls such as Qt library mismatches, Snap permission issues and missing language plugins are addressed, along with quick sanity checks to confirm installation success. Finally, it walks through launching KDevelop, indexing folders, creating a new C++ project, pointing to system headers, and compiling while encouraging readers to seek help if they run into trouble.

The guide walks you through adding Oracle’s MySQL 8.0 repository to Ubuntu, downloading the configuration package, installing it with dpkg, and then running an apt update so that the newest binaries become available. Once mysql‑server is installed it asks for a root password and immediately runs a secure installation script that removes anonymous accounts, blocks remote root logins, deletes test databases, and reloads privilege tables. You can confirm the server’s health by checking its status with systemctl, connecting to the MySQL shell, and running a simple SELECT version() query; this gives you an instant sanity check. Finally, the article reminds you to keep your packages up‑to‑date, back up regularly, and points out common troubleshooting steps such as inspecting journal logs if the service fails to start.
