Both GIMP and Darktable are installed as Flatpak. GIMP can't open ARW raw files?

Software GIMP

On my Linux Mint laptop GIMP doesn’t recognize DT when I try to open a raw file. Is that a Flatpak thing? I see there’s been some questions about this but I’m not clear on any solution.

Thanks for any hints.

Yes it is a flatpak thing.

Is there a way around it? Maybe opening something up in Flatseal?

Maybe the only way to use GIMP would be to open the raw file in DT, tweak it and save as a TIF before opening in Gimp?

Yes that would work.
