[GNC] Chromebooks

*So here's where I'm at...

1. I previously activated Linux on the Google Pixel Chromebook without any
problem at all.

2. This evening I had no problem installing flatpak.  I first entered at the
terminal prompt:

sudo apt-get install flatpak

then I entered...

sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub
https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

I restarted the Chromebook

3. Per the instructions on the flathub site, to install GnuCash, I entered
at the terminal prompt:

flatpak install flathub org.gnucash.GnuCash

It started installing just fine, and then I would get the message:  "While
pulling runtime/org.gnome.Platform/x86-64/3.28 from remote flathub socket
I/O timed out

I then re-ran it again about 4 or 5 times, each time got the above error
message, but each time more was installed, until finally, it appeared the
install was complete without generating the above error message, but now I
get a different error message...

GDBus.Error:org.free desktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied:Flatpak system
operation Deploy not allowed for user*

Here's a cut and paste of the actual text:
