+Pre-compiled LAMMPS executable packages that include the GUI are
+currently available from https://download.lammps.org/static or
+https://github.com/lammps/lammps/releases.  For Windows, you need to
+download and then run the application installer.  For macOS you download
+and mount the disk image and then drag the application bundle to the
+Applications folder.  For Linux (x86_64) you currently have two
+options: 1) you can download the tar.gz archive, unpack it and run the
+GUI directly in place.  The ``LAMMPS_GUI`` folder may also be moved
+around and added to the ``PATH`` environment variable so the executables
+will be found automatically.  2) you can download the `Flatpak file
+<https://www.flatpak.org/>`_ and then install it locally with the
+*flatpak* command: ``flatpak install --user
+LAMMPS-Linux-x86_64-GUI-<version>.flatpak`` and run it with ``flatpak
+run org.lammps.lammps-gui``.  The flatpak version should also appear in
+the applications menu of standard desktop environments.  The LAMMPS-GUI
 executable is called ``lammps-gui`` and either takes no arguments or
 attempts to load the first argument as LAMMPS input file.
