I've installed QGIS on a CentOS 7 system using these two different
methods:
1) qgis 2.14.9 from epel repo via a 'yum install qgis' command,
2) qgis 3.14.0 via flatpak install.
This CentOS 7 system is remote and I am attempting to run qgis via an ssh
login. Other X window apps are working fine via this ssh login so I know
that, in general, my ssh connection is working with X forwarded through
the ssh connection.
The version 2.14.9 install via yum runs fine via this ssh connection and
displays back to my local X display.
The flatpak version 3.14.0 does this:
$ flatpak run org.qgis.qgis
QGIS starting in non-interactive mode not supported.
You are seeing this message most likely because you have no DISPLAY
environment variable set.
but my X display is definitely set:
$ echo $DISPLAY
localhost:11.0
and, as I wrote above, other X apps, including qgis-2.14.9, are working as
expected via this ssh-tunnelled X display.
Is there a known workaround that will allow me to run this flatpak gqis
remotely via an ssh login and display to the ssh-tunnelled X display?
