Hey, I am forced to use Ubuntu 20.04 because it's the only distro and version currently supported by Shadow, which I use for several hours every day. (Yeah, it sucks that they haven't kept up with updates or support other distros...) And I'm trying to install Floorp browser but I get errors both via apt get install and via flatpak. Here are the two errors:

apt get install floorp
floorp : Depends: libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

flatpak install flathub one.ablaze.floorp
Looking for matches…
error: Unable to load summary from remote flathub: URI https://dl.flathub.org/repo/summary exceeded maximum size of 10485760 bytes

I'm pretty new to Linux so I have no idea what to do here. I found nothing helpful when searching these errors.

Ooh, I gotta try that with distrobox. And I'll try to remove then add the repo again as soon as I'm able, thank you!
