Public bug reported:
Currently, there's no options to filter out proprietary snaps (and, I
suppose, Flatpaks?) from Software. When I click on the application drop-
down for Software, it links to Software & Updates, which I suppose is
where Software would be filtered. Please could an option to filter out
proprietary snaps (just as there are options to filter out proprietary
Debs by only enabling the main and universe pockets) be provided? The
option for snaps should only be visible when gnome-software-plugin-snap
is installed and the option for Flatpaks only visible when gnome-
software-plugin-flatpak is installed.
Like with the Debs though, perhaps this should also affect the command
line, if a `snap install` is attempted for a proprietary snap, or one
attempts to install a proprietary Flatpak from a remote, the command
line should print something like 'The ability to install proprietary
snaps' or Flatpaks 'has been disabled so the snap' or Flatpak 'will not
be installed. If you would like to install the proprietary snap' or
Flatpak 'then change the setting for proprietary snaps' or Flatpaks 'in
Software & Updates'.
