From their GitHub:

cpak installs applications from OCI images while keeping package metadata in a Git repository. It provides native desktop integration, shared content-addressed layers, atomic updates and a rootless Linux sandbox from one Go binary.

It seems interesting. I’ve never heard of it before, but apparently Bottles packages with cpak along with flatpak. The main reason I use flatpaks are its sandboxing capabilities, so it would be cool if cpak brings new stuff to the table while matching or overpassing the sandboxing capabilities.

    The restriction pretty much aims at companies like Amazon that rehost an open source project. That sounds pretty fair to me

      What about this? This basically forbids you to fork the software if you want to - e.g. because they’re maybe going closed source in a few years?

      You may not use the Software, in whole or in part, to create, distribute, or operate any product, system, or service whose primary function directly overlaps with or replicates the core business purpose of the Product, unless explicitly authorized in writing by fabricators.
