 Some compilers and libraries can be acquired as Flatpak SDKs, such as `org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.rust-stable` or `org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.llvm15`.
 
-If you use a Flatpak SDK for Rust, there should be no extra steps necessary.

 If you want to use Flatpak in combination with `rustup`, the following steps might help:
