Right, but what I mean is - there'll be more shared dependencies in an rpm than would be in a flatpak because they're not containerized - my understanding is that updating links inside of a package is common because of that - part of the job of being a distro maintainer is recompiling a bunch of software that you've updated to all use the same dependencies as each other.

What's odd to me is why Fedora would make *more* changes in a flatpak than they already had to make for the rpm.
