--- Comment #1 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at igalia.com> ---
Adrian has reminded me that we prefer to switch to flatpak so that we all have exactly the same build environment, and also reminded me that it should be possible to build the sysroot using flatpak but execute our tests outside it, so we can test WebKit's sandbox rather than the flatpak sandbox. So flatpak would be used for building, but not running.

Still, the project seems stalled, the build rules have become desynced from jhbuild due to patches being added in jhbuild but not to flatpak, and we have unresolved bugs like bug #190241 and bug #188654, so the current state is not good and the transition period has been quite long already.
