Bug ID: 461908
Summary: Add flathub repository as `user` repo by default
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version: 5.26.2
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Flatpak Backend

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I think it's better to add flathub repo as `user` repo by default, to avoid
pollution of /var/tmp that can happen
(https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/528 and
https://github.com/endlessm/systemd/commit/6bdb355a9e515b7b84ac1f37747603d4db4267c7)
on distro's that don't clean up this path (opensuse for example) and to avoid
any use of polkit (no entering password's anymore on distro's that require it
when working with flatpak). Another reasons for using `user` over `system` can
be found here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=441428#c6
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to discover settings.
2. Add flathub repo.
3. It will be added as `system` repo.
OBSERVED RESULT
Repo added as `system`.
EXPECTED RESULT
Repo added as `user`.
