Flatpak installation

[Matthew Leeds]

You can try installing flatpak from the relevant backports repository; the
instructions for that are here <https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/>.
Note that that page assumes you're on buster but you're probably on jessie;
check using `cat /etc/os-release`.
