Bug Description

The gnome-software-plugin-flatpak package, that provides Flatpak support for GNOME Software, is missing in Ubuntu. The package is probably missing because it conflicts with the GNOME Software build used in Ubuntu (Ubuntu Software), but no alternative to this package is provided. Please, give end-users a proper Flatpak support.

Removed the "xenial" tag because the Flatpak support is completely missing in Ubuntu 16.04.
