> I'm filing a Jira ticket as suggested in Mattermost.
> In order to explore shipping our Eclipse-based products as Flatpak applications, (initially SCL and maybe eventually also JBDS) I need a build slave for the Jenkins[1] that is capable of generating Flatpaks.
> The newly released RHEL 7.6 has a sufficiently new version of *flatpak* and *flatpak-builder* packages. Please also ensure there is *java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel* and a recent maven installed.
> Please consider adding such a builder.
