i have the librewolf repo enabled but only the flatpack version appears:

i think it's because of this check in /lib/python3/dist-packages/mintcommon/installer/_apt.py:

it should probably be updated to something like this, because there are probably other "libre" packages that the user would want to see:

-        if name.startswith("lib") and not name.startswith(("libre", "libk3b7", "libimage-exiftool-perl")):
+        if name.startswith("lib") and not name.startswith(("libreoffice", "librecad", "libk3b7", "libimage-exiftool-perl")):
             continue

i think there should probably also be a setting to disable this filtering, because special-casing specific package names is not very reliable IMO
