install --user faugus-launcher-0.6.2-5.flatpak\n```\nSteam Flatpak needs permissions to run Faugus Launcher's shortcuts and to show the game's icon:\n```\nsudo flatpak override com.valvesoftware.Steam --talk-name=org.freedesktop.Flatpak\nsudo flatpak override com.valvesoftware.Steam --filesystem=~/.var/app/org.faugus.faugus_launcher/config/faugus-launcher/\n```\nKnown issues:\n\n- The button Stop can't close individual games/apps due to how Flatpak handles processes. I'll have to rework the game/app monitoring in the future.\n- Gamescope doesn't work.
