Flatpak build for Anki, a powerful and intelligent flash card software.

To install: Configure the Flathub remote and run the system-wide or user install:

# system install
flatpak install net.ankiweb.Anki

# user install
flatpak install --user net.ankiweb.Anki

Optional:

• mpv is already bundled together with the package for audio and video support
• Install org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.texlive//24.08 if you want to use TeX

Known issues and troubleshooting

X11: Fractional scaling does not work, only scales by whole numbers

Try running the app as follows: flatpak run --env=QT_SCALE_FACTOR_ROUNDING_POLICY=passthrough net.ankiweb.Anki. If scaling works properly, add an override with flatpak override --env=QT_SCALE_FACTOR_ROUNDING_POLICY=passthrough net.ankiweb.Anki or with Flatseal.

X11: Menus in toolbar do not show up properly on theme change

Theme changes do not appear to hot-load properly on X11. Restart the application after changing the theme.

MPV: How to disable (due to graphics problems, high cpu, or other reasons)

MPV is bundled with the app, but some people want to disable this due to issues with mpv (not the anki app). Here is how:

1. Find the addon directory (usually ~/.var/app/net.ankiweb.Anki/data/Anki2/addons), cd to it.
2. mkdir nompv, then cd nompv
3. Add the contents of the following to __init.py__: https://gist.github.com/rayes0/5fd3a629011846bd17d93fa9276080c7
This will stop mpv’s idle process in anki and replace it with a dummy player. Audio and video will no longer work. For more information, see #228
