Description
On some occasions, when you install a flatpak, it will pull in a runtime that needs to be installed first. In these situations, installation can feel very slow. It's also not clear to users why installation is taking so long - if it's a single app, the user might well ask themselves if it's broken
In these situations, it might be best to:
- Communicate that additional software is being installed
- Possibly add a spinner or additional progress indicator, so that there's some movement even when the progress bar isn't noticeably moving
