Do you have a problem during or after connecting?

The GUI or CLI do not work anymore after upgrading to 4.7.0. A Flatpak would create consistent installations on all distributions and also sandbox it.

With an immutable OS like Silverblue you can layer RPMs, but that's mostly reserved for extra drivers or core system apps that can't be running in either a Toolbx (container) or Flatpak.
